Blink-182 guitarist Tom DeLonge has teamed up with Fender to release a Tom DeLonge Stratocaster signature guitar and accessories collection.
The Limited Edition Tom DeLonge Stratocaster was rushed into production due to overwhelming fan demand.
“I try to write music that is accessible and easy to play and enjoy, so that people can come along for the ride. This simplicity really inspired this new signature Stratocaster,” said DeLonge. “It just has one knob and one pickup, which just makes it easy to turn it up, play and sound great, especially important when you’re in front of a crowd and already have plenty to think about.”
He added, “On top of that, the bright colors give it a timeless, California feel that stands out on any stage. Together with Fender, a brand that is deeply rooted in my musical identity, we’ve created something that really stands the test of time – like I strive to do with my music.”
Boasting a Seymour Duncan Invader humbucker, the Tom DeLonge Stratocaster delivers immense output and turbo-charged tones. It features a comfortable modern “C” neck with medium jumbo frets on a 9.5″ radius rosewood fingerboard.
Adorned with a custom crafted neck plate featuring Tom DeLonge’s original artwork, the stratocaster is available in the same four colors as Tom’s first signature guitar – Surf Green, Daphne Blue, Graffiti Yellow and Black.
The guitar is priced at $1,299.99.
