Woah, excellent pics, I'm blown away.... Ben looks like an iconic rock star! In the first one, it looks like he's about to swallow the microphone. Lovely. :]

Jesus holy Christ; the first picture looks more like Wolverine than it does Benjamin Gibbard.

Hey gp3, what camera do you use? I'm going to be buying a new camera soon and I want it to be able to take great concert photos like yours.

Fender Telecaster; just about anywhere.

Wrong. I figured it out though:
G & L Bluesboy TL Black

What is different about it is that it has an F-hole while maintaining the normal pickguard of a telecaster. Fenders that have F-holes have crazy ugly pickguards. Google it if you wanna see what I'm talking about.

Whoa. Nice catch; I didn't see the F hole in the top there in the first picture. I didn't know he was playing semihollows these days...

There was the F-hole and the weird neck that gave it away.

I think he had played semi hollows before, however. I know that he played a thinline telecaster for the postal service stuff.

The neck is pretty ugly... If I got one, I'd probably try my best to swap it out for a fender neck. I like fender necks anyways.

Yeah, if you see Ben or Chris playing a Tele - it's most likely not. They use G&L's pretty much all the time.

The gear page on their website (at least, last time I looked at it) had Ben playing '70s Teles. Guess that's more or less out the window, eh?

Even Chris's yellow "Tele" isn't a Tele...?

Looks like they just recently updated the gear page. They used to have Ben playing some '72 Thinlines, but they've taken that stuff out and put in the G&L's and J-45s.

As for Chris, I'm not sure, but I remember him playing a G&L that looked like what you're describing. It seems weird that they would have it as a Tele on there, so maybe that is what he's playing... I don't feel like digging around for a pic of him playing it right now haha.

edit: Here's a pic of Chris with his G&L. So that raises the question... who the hell wrote up that gear list?!
