Story: Ralph Greco, Jr.

According to JOHN 5, “The song called ‘The Ghost’ is pretty much about my guitar that came out earlier this year. The guitar is, to me, the perfect guitar. It has everything; looks, durability, amazing sound, so the only thing I could do is create a song that shows all of its glory. When the guitar came out, I went right into the studio and recorded this song with the new guitar, and I couldn’t think of a more fitting title than ‘The Ghost’.”

About JOHN 5:

For over 30 years, JOHN 5 has been one of the most in-demand guitar players on the planet. As well being as a songwriter/guitarist for hire, JOHN 5 has shared the stage as axe-man for Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Rob Halford. He has also worked with an impressive array of names, from all walks of music, including KD Lang, Rod Stewart, David Lee Roth, Alice Cooper, Tina Guo, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Meatloaf, Dolly Parton, and Ricky Martin.

In October 2022, it was announced that JOHN 5 would be joining Mötley Crüe as their guitarist following the announcement that Mick Mars would be retiring. JOHN 5 continues to tour with Mötley Crüe on their 2023 world tour with Def Leppard, with dates coming up in Japan and Australia.

 

To call JOHN 5 a shredder does not do him justice. There’s little he can’t put his hand to.
