Fender Limited Edition Tom Delonge Stratocaster RW, Surf Green - Ex Demo

Full Description

Get Delonge's iconic voicing

The Tom Delonge Stratocaster is an exceptional guitar that captures the essence of the classic pop-punk, Blink-182 sound. Its electronics on this guitar play a crucial role in providing you with that unmistakable tone. A singular Seymour Duncan Invader SH8 humbucker delivers the perfect tonality for chunky power chords and crunchy riffs. It packs a punch that cuts through the mix, giving you that wall of sound that Tom Delonge is known for. The humbucker is paired with a streamlined control setup that consists of a single master volume combined with a treble bleed circuit. This preserves the guitar's sparkly cleans and chime-y edge-of-breakup. The result is a guitar that provides incredible tonal versatility, allowing you to achieve everything from smooth, clean to heavy, distorted tones.

What's more, the bridge provides superior intonation and enhanced tuning stability, allowing for aggressive playing without losing tuning. This is especially important for those who use heavy strings or drop tuning, which can often cause tuning issues on guitars with tremolo systems. It also adds to the overall sustain and resonance, giving it a full-bodied sound that is perfect for pop punk and rock music.

Create unforgettable playing moments

With its modern "C" neck and medium jumbo frets on a rosewood fingerboard, this signature Strat offers superior playability that makes it easy to hit shreds, riffs, and solos with ease. The comfortable neck profile fits perfectly in your hand, providing a fast and smooth experience. The medium jumbo frets offer ample space between the strings, making it easier to execute complex chord changes and fingerings. What's more, the 9.5" radius fingerboard adds a comfortable and natural feel that allows for effortless playing. With a playability this good, it's effortless to achieve your musical goals.
