Fender Starcaster Signature Tom Delonge RW Satin Olympic White

A 70's Icon Reinvented by Tom DeLonge

Inspired by the vintage Starcaster, this signature version modernizes the concept with a center block, ultra-clean electronics, and luthiery choices designed for the stage. It retains the asymmetrical aesthetics and vintage binding, but with current reliability and ergonomics, as well as Tom's illustration on the neck plate.

Who This Signature Starcaster Is For

Perfect for Blink-182 fans and styles like pop-punk, punk rock, alternative, and indie. Its simplicity (single volume), tuning stability, and access to the high register make it an ideal stage companion. Suitable for ambitious beginners to advanced guitarists seeking a plug-and-play, inspiring instrument ready to handle heavy riffs as well as clear arpeggios.

Sound

The SH-5 delivers tight lows, a present midrange that cuts through the mix, and clear highs. The Treble Bleed maintains brightness when lowering the volume, ideal for switching from gritty crunch to sparkling clean with a simple gesture. The laminated maple body with center block provides attack, sustain, and feedback control, while the adjustable bridge + stop tailpiece tightens the response. Overall, it offers a modern, direct tone with great definition both in chords and palm-muted playing.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

A set of nickel-plated steel strings .009-.042 (original gauge) will preserve the feel and tonal balance. Add a quality 6.35 mm instrument cable for a clean signal, a sturdy standard strap to secure the instrument, and a clip-on tuner for quick tuning changes between songs.
