Fender 2019 Squier John 5 Telecaster w/ Kill Switch Frost Gold J5 Tele HH 05624
This is a beautiful 2019 Squier John 5 Telecaster in Frost Gold finish. These are pretty amazing Tele’s. Features:
— Fully bound body
— Custom Alnico humbuckers
— C-shape neck with medium jumbo frets
The control setup is 3-way switch with dual volume controls. Only difference on this one is previous owner added a momentary kill switch, which only affects the bridge pickup. Really fun to play with. Switch on the back of guitar lights up the green “5” switch. All gold hardware. Cosmetically, it is super clean. No dings or scratches. There is one spot on the bridge where the gold is discolored (see pics). Frets are in very good condition. Comes with original paperwork including hangtag, Snark tuner, and strap w/ gold straplocks. No case. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking!

Guitar Setup
Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 15 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.

His Squier signature model, the J5 Telecaster, is a double-bound beauty based on his oft-modded workhorse Telecaster that appears on his myriad recordings. Eye-catching and thick-sounding, this is a beast of a guitar.
