John 5 owns a Fender Telecaster from almost every year and since we’re celebrating our 60th anniversary of the Tele, that’s obviously quite a large collection. As he’s always telling us, owning Telecasters is “an obsession,” which made for no surprise when he dropped by the Fender Showcase in Burbank, Calif.,  on Thursday and took home a brand new Fender Custom Shop Snake Head Tele.
