Tue Jan 28 06:50:00 IST 2025: ## Jack White’s Custom Triplecaster Guitar to Debut at NAMM 2025
**Anaheim, CA** – Jack White’s highly anticipated Fender Custom Shop Triplecaster guitar is finally making its debut at the 2025 NAMM show. The former White Stripes guitarist unveiled a sneak peek on Instagram, showcasing the hand-built instrument crafted by Fender Custom Shop master builder Chip Ellis and pickup designer Tim Shaw.
The new model boasts several refinements compared to White’s heavily-modified “road-tested” prototype. While retaining the unique partially-scalloped fretboard and its distinctive three-pickup configuration (a CuNiFe Wide Range humbucker, a JW-90, and a custom Jack White humbucker), the Custom Shop version features a cleaner aesthetic. The screws and pole pieces around the pickups and pickguard have been removed, and the headstock has been switched from a Stratocaster style to a Telecaster style. A key addition is the inclusion of a Glaser Bender, designed by Nashville luthier Joe Glaser.
White teased further enhancements, stating, “Too many interesting features to mention at this moment,” adding that the guitar is currently on display at the Third Man Hardware booth at NAMM for attendees to play.
This announcement comes alongside Fender’s recent launch of its new Indonesian-made Standard Series guitars, marking the company’s return to manufacturing outside the US and Mexico since the Modern Player series.
