Description
***Slight finish flaw on lower cutaway from polishing at the factory. Very hard to notice.
Blink-182 guitarist Tom DeLonge has teamed up with Fender® once again to design a truly otherworldly phenomenon - the Tom DeLonge Starcaster®.
Designed with an offset semi-hollow body, the Tom DeLonge Starcaster boasts a Seymour Duncan® SH-5 Duncan Custom™ humbucker for turbo-charged tone that's perfect for chunky power chords and crunchy riffs. But it's not all about power - the streamlined control setup consisting of a single master volume combined with a treble bleed circuit preserves the guitar's natural high-end, ensuring sparkly cleans and chime-y edge-of-breakup tones. The comfy modern "C" neck features medium jumbo frets on a 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard for a modern feel with superior playability. Other highlights include Fender locking tuners for rock-solid tuning stability and fully adjustable bridge with stop tailpiece for classic looks, superior setup adjustment and enhanced tuning stability. DeLonge's original signature artwork is featured on the back of the headstock and custom crafted neck plate.
Whether you're a Blink-182 fan looking to bottle the band's signature sound, or simply seeking a unique instrument that packs a knockout punch, the Tom DeLonge Starcaster is a must-have addition to any collection.
