In 2004, Fender introduced the John 5 Telecaster guitar. Designed in collaboration with John in Scottsdale, Arizona and built at Fender's own manufacturing facility in Ensenada, Mexico. The guitar comes in two models: the standard J5 Telecaster and the upscaled J5 Bigsby Telecaster. In an interview with Vintage Guitar Magazine, John had this to say about the origin of this guitar:
The guitar is based on a standard Telecaster with a high-output humbucker in the bridge position, a "twisted tele" pickup in the neck position, a custom headstock (for behind the nut bends), a black finish, and a chrome pickguard. Fender produces two models; one with a standard fixed bridge, and one with a bigsby vibrato. He used this guitar on the Grotesque Burlesque Tour when he was in Marilyn Manson, and he currently uses it on his tours with Rob Zombie.
