OK, I'm a gearhead junkie and I can't help to notice on these vids:

On Brave Men Run/DV'69 Lee is playing what appears to be a new/different telecaster, I've never seen him play a Telecaster Custom before (its definitely a custom because I have one), it has a single coil in the bridge and the wide range bucker in the neck position, he usually plays tele deluxes which have 2 WR humbuckers... also the customs have traditional tele headstocks and deluxes have the fatter strat style ones and Thurston's sunburst jazzmaster for these songs looks different/new? it has two knobs, they've been hotrodding all these guitars w/ only a volume knob for some time now...
Kim's jazzmaster in Calming the Snake (@ 17:52)? looks sorta like her J Mascis custom Jazzmaster but it has a black body or is it just the lighting? again this one has two knobs and a jazzmaster pickup in the neck and humbucker in the bridge, is this a "blacktop series" jazzmaster?
Now this is getting weird, Thurston's primary "CGDGCD" beaten black sticker-laden jazzmaster is used on Mote? ...the tuning is very different, his tuning for Mote is
GGDDD#D#.
Ok more new/different guitars on 'Cross the Breeze (@ around 25:00), Lee is playing what looks to be a new looking blue musicmaster w/ WR humbuckers, and Thurston is playing another black w/ red pickguard jazzmaster but it also looks brand new, upper horn electronics taped over and also without those pot modifications as they have volume and tone knobs...

What the??? Thurston w/ another new looking black w/ red pickguard jazzmaster on Schizophrenia, looks identical to the one used in 'Cross the Breeze...
Lee is playing a new looking tele deluxe thats red? w/ black pickguard on Starfield Road, and then on Flower (@16:15) an all black telecaster with 2 - WR humbuckers
looks like Thurston's vintage sunburst jazzmaster used during the "Rather Ripped" tour is back and tuned for Sugar Kane/Teenage Riot.

The band has new/different equipment and their future is uncertain??? ...maybe these are rented guitars?
