Shane_B. Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I really like John 5. While I greatly dislike Marilynn Manson and he was his guitar player for a while, I really like his solo stuff and the story of why he only plays Telecasters. He grew up watching Hee Haw with his father and thought the only guitar there was were Telecasters and that's how it started. I can't ever recall any other player doing the type of music he does with a Tele. Part of the reason is the silver pickup rings like a bell. Once the joke portion ends he and The Creatures do an incredible version of I Got Rhythm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw Toseland live (supporting Status Quo) a few years ago Shane and one of the guitarists used a Tele on a lot of heavy stuff. Looks like he has humbuckers installed in it though: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
