Fender Review: Tom Delonge Strat

Fender Electric Guitars



History:

Purchase: The Tom Delonge strat caught my attention after I discovered Blink 182 which I still listen to older cds of, and I wanted it ever since I saw it. The Seymour Duncan Invader pickup grabbed my eye also. My parents gave it to me for my birthday, they bought it for five hundred dollars in northwest Indiana.

What I Like About This Fender Tom Delonge Strat: -Seymour Duncan Invader -pearloid pickguard -finish -high quality neck

What I Do NOT Like About The Fender Tom Delonge Strat: the tuning machines were a big disapointment because they are a hassle to put the strings on. I plan on buying standard or Spurzel tuning machines shortly. The plastic cover over the pickguard (not the peely one) was chipping off a bit but it's not a big problem.

Fender Tom Delonge Strat Quality Rating: The construction and quality is great, except maybe for the pickguard.



Review Summary: The bottom line is I got exactly what I expected and this guitar is perfect for the type of music I was playing at the time. I wouldn't take it back if I had the chance.

Rating of this Fender product: 5

Fender Tom DeLonge Strat - It's a great guitar, but don't just run out and buy it. It's my idea of the perfect guitar, but a lot of people either don't like it or they have rich parents who spend 500 dollars on them to have a Blink-182 guitar that they don't even know how to...

Fender toronado - Some people say they don't really like its clean sound. I think it is very good and warm. Obviously it is different from a single coil....

Fender Roland-Ready Stratocaster - For the price of a Fender that was midi I would have expected to pay a lot more than I did. This is a great product, not only can you use this guitar in a studio its great for live performance as well. The sounds that the Roland Synths produce are...

Fender Standard Strat - This is THE guitar to get if you need to destroy a guitar on stage. ...

Fender Deluxe Super Strat - What a fine guitar! I understand now why the Strat has been around for so long, and why so many guitarists own them. It's a great-playing, great-sounding, simple, and bullet-proof design whose price tag will not send you to the poor house....

Fender Princeton 65 - Great amp if your looking to upgrade from crap to something half way decent. Cheap, loud, looks and sounds good. ...

Fender DG-8 - It is a great instrument all around...
