Withdrawal termsDescription
The body of the Tom DeLonge Starcaster is built with a thin, lightweight maple laminate body, making it exceptionally well suited for modern rock and a good choice for guitarists seeking an alternative to their solidbody guitars. A roasted maple neck provides essential Fender playability and comfort, while a medium-output ceramic humbucker from Seymour Duncan USA ensures a crunchy and snappy tone.
The Tom DeLonge Starcaster consists almost entirely of laminated maple. This time-tested tonewood gives semi-hollowbody guitars like the Tom DeLonge Starcaster a consistent tone, balanced sustain, and a soft attack that is well suited for power chords and ringing open chords. These qualities allow the Tom DeLonge Starcaster to fit into a dense mix alongside other instruments, which is why DeLonge favors Starcasters for both Angels & Airwaves' uplifting rock as well as Blink-182's softer songs.
With its bolt-on neck and Modern "C" neck profile, the Tom DeLonge Starcaster can compete with the playability and comfort you get in a solidbody electric guitar. The neck's roasted maple makes the neck lighter and incredibly stable - warping or shifts caused by moisture, heat, and other climate factors are eliminated by "maturing" the wood by baking it in an oxygen-deprived chamber. The neck is coated with a rosewood fretboard and paired with premium hardware, such as locking tuning pegs and adjustable saddles, which make it easy to change strings.
Its Duncan Custom SH-5 humbucker is carefully tuned to deliver a sparkling clean tone and a robust overdriven tone. The SH-5 is built as a variation of the classic vintage PAF pickup, which in this version has received a warm ceramic magnet that reacts vividly to overdrive. The lows are tight, the midrange is emphasized to give the tone more punch, and the highs are airy and prominent, even with thick distortion. Each SH-5 pickup is hand-built in Santa Barbara, California, and is wax potted to prevent feedback and hum. The volume control is equipped with a treble bleed circuit that eliminates loss of treble at lower volumes.
