The soloist and former White Stripes frontman has teamed up with the legendary guitar brand to release two guitars and an amp, with each piece capturing “the raw energy, distinctive style, stripped-down instrumentation, and punk rock ethos that’s defined White’s illustrious career.”

The Signature Jack White collection includes the Pano Verb Amplifier, influenced by his own vintage Vibrasonic and Vibroverb amps, and will retail for £2,869. The collection also includes the TripleSonic Acoustasonic, which will include streamlined 3-way switch voicings curated by White himself – this is priced at £3,499.

He will also release his own TripleCaster Telecaster, complete with its own Jack White humbucker, JW-90 single-coil, CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbucker, DropTuner, Killswitch and banjo-style armrest. The TripleCaster Telecaster will set buyers back £2,199.

Speaking about the collection, White said: “We found the best of the old, with the best of the new and mixed innovation with the history of Fender to do something that we think Leo Fender would have been very proud of if he was alive today.”

Jack White recently surprised released his latest album by slipping it into the bags of customers at his record shop, Third Man Records.

He then officially released the album on August 2, with NME giving it a four-star review. “Fans don’t need to endure a 10-month rollout of endless singles, oversaturated media appearances and TikTok douchery until they receive an album they’re already tired of,” we wrote. “This is an ode to the mystique of rock’n’roll and to the joy of music at its most physical and playful.

“Teasing doesn’t always lead to satisfaction. Just cut to the chase – and this one’s a bone-rattling ride. White’s revelling in the real world and has made it a much more thrilling place.”

In other news, Jack White slammed politicians and mocked high ticket prices at his last-minute, intimate London show.
