Fender Tom Delonge Starcaster Electric Guitar, Rosewood Fingerboard, Satin Shoreline Gold Fender

The Fender Tom Delonge Starcaster is an aesthetically simple, single pickup guitar made for players who want a semi-hollow, high gain instrument with some unique flair. Known as a founding member of both Blink-182 and Angels & Airwaves, Tom Delonge has a career that speaks for itself. A frequent Fender Collaborator (his Strat being a favorite of ours here at Russo), Tom’s newest teaming-up with Fender has resulted in this one-of-a-kind Starcaster, featuring a handful of specs hand-selected by Delonge himself.

The body of this Starcaster is fashioned from laminated maple, into a classic Starcaster shape, with two f-holes carved into its top. With a center block made of maple running through the middle portion of the body of this Satin Shoreline Gold beauty, it’s capable of handling higher amounts of gain than a fully-hollow guitar would be able to, and is suited for rock as a result. 

It features a pickup that’s quite suited for rock, as well: a Seymour Duncan, Duncan Custom SH-5. This Seymour Duncan pickup is their take on a PAF-style humbucker, and is overwound to be slightly hotter than your average pickup, working in tandem with the center block-design of this Starcaster to allow for high-gain, deep and expressive tones to happen while mitigating issues with feeding back.

Attached to its body with a four-bolt neck plate featuring a custom “TOM” logo, the neck of this Starcaster is carved to a Modern “C” shape from maple, roasted to remove impurities and improve stability. On the neck, a 9.5-inch fingerboard made from rosewood is divided by 22 frets, which feature Pearloid Dot inlays between them. A Dual-Action truss rod allows quick adjustments from the headstock, and the synthetic bone nut measures at 1.650″ wide. The total scale length of this guitar is 25.5 inches.

In the hardware department, this guitar boasts a handful of notable specs: a 6-saddle adjustable Stoptail bridge, Fender Deluxe Staggered Cast/Sealed Locking tuning machines, and Dual-Wing string trees all work in harmony to create a guitar that’s maintained with ease, and also come in a chrome finish.

With its simple, no-nonsense design featuring a single volume knob and only one pickup, and its Satin Shoreline Gold finish, this guitar offers one thing and does it very well. To the stars!
