If you’ve caught Jack White on his ongoing Supply Chain Issues Tour, you may have seen him try out his new custom Fender Jazzmaster guitar. In a new Instagram post, the White Stripes/Raconteurs/Dead Weather rocker shared a video of the guitar in action.

“Can anybody tell me what’s happening with this guitar?” White asks after 10 seconds of shredding.

The folks over at Guitar World have an answer, having recently interviewed White about the instrument. Essentially, it includes a pitch-shifting pedal built into the body of the guitar.

As White tells Guitar World, he was partly inspired by one of Muse frontman Matt Bellamy‘s signature guitars, which similarly has an effects sampler built into it. White’s also hoping that his custom Jazzmaster will catch the attention of another iconic shredder.

“I think Tom Morello may end up getting jealous of this and have to put it on his guitar, too,” White says. “I’ll have to send him a clip of it and see what he thinks.”

White’s tour continues Tuesday in Vancouver.
