Raw Garage-Rock Genius Meets Precision Custom Engineering
The Guitar Sanctuary is proud to present the Fender Jack White Triplecaster® in Black—a radically modded, highly utilitarian tone machine designed in collaboration with one of modern rock’s most visionary guitarists. Built on a lightweight chambered ash body and dressed in striking gloss black with white powder-coated hardware, the Triplecaster fuses vintage T-style feel with relentless sonic innovation.
Voiced by legendary pickup guru Tim Shaw, the Triplecaster features an ultra-versatile HSH configuration: a throat-rich CuNiFe® Wide-Range Humbucker in the neck, a punchy JW-90 single-coil in the middle, and a high-output custom Jack White humbucker at the bridge. Coupled with a 3-way blade switch, an arcade-style arcade "stutter" switch for rhythmic stutter effects, and a 3-way auxiliary toggle offering a true "Direct-To-Jack" signal bypass, this instrument is designed for instant tonal shape-shifting on stage or in the studio.
Sanctuary Product Intelligence Framework
- Best For: Alternative Rock, Garage Rock, Studio Experimentation, Modern Blues, and Live Performance.
- Tone Profile: Dynamic, punchy, articulate, and raw—spanning warm CuNiFe neck resonance, gritty P-90 middle snap, and searing bridge humbucker drive.
- Key Performance Hardware: Hipshot® Xtender for instant Drop-D tuning changes, custom "Cut-Off" Tele® bridge with compensated steel saddles, and a Bigsby® B5C vibrato tailpiece.
- Neck Feeling: Mid-'50s Soft "V" maple neck with a smooth satin urethane finish, 12" radius maple fingerboard, and 22 medium jumbo frets for effortless bends.
- Sanctuary Expert Note: "The Triplecaster is not a wall hanger—it’s an engine of creativity. The direct-to-jack bypass switch and arcade stutter button give players instant access to dynamic shifts that usually require a complex pedalboard set-up."
