@@1LouderSoundI'm pretty sure Gibson, a business, cares more about sales than it does about "who shreds." Tom Delonge's strat is not just one of the top selling fender models, it's one of the top selling signature models of ALL TIME. This new one will sell very well. It's a cash cow for fender. Gibson, again a business, needs sales. They're literally just a few years out from filing for bankruptcy for $500mil in debts. Gibson, still a business, doesn't need people who "shred," what they need is to move guitars.
@@kennymccoy662I’ve heard many of their albums but I wouldn’t rate him as a guitarist worth signature guitars. He’s not unlike the foo fighters guitarists. It’s all just simple stuff.
My buddy’s friend from highschool with Tom. My buddy lives here in Cleveland but they still talk. My buddy doesn’t act like he’s famous they literally were childhood friends. We ll Tom called him 5 weeks ago and told him to pick two colors and just sent them to him. He showed them to me today. He got the pink one and the white one. They are so nice and you can play anything you want on them. Metal punk or classic or country. Just anything. These are amazing. I can’t wait to get one
Hey I’m also Justin btw! I have a TD 333, and the reissued Strat (my OG was stolen after high school). I’m still paying off the new Strat. I shouldn’t buy the Starcaster, but I know I will. I can’t afford it. YOLO, though.
@@cedrickeit gibson it 3x this, also no gig bag or case is worst thing about this wonder why mexico not over see this given his strat success? Funny old world guess fender get better mark up from asia
They've had Fender guitars made in China, and I'm pretty sure the Jim Adkins signature is a Fender made in China, I think they do it overseas only for signature artists who wanna make their guitars as affordable as possible, especially since squier no longer make signature guitars aside from the j mascis jm
@thelongestdongrod190 the Jim Adkins is made in Indonesia too. They don't have the tooling to make Starcasters in the States or Mexico. Tom's personal guitars use the Indonesian bodies
The CNC machines needed to make the Starcaster are no longer located in the US, so it makes sense to build the bodies in Indonesia at the Squier factory rather than build new machines just for one signature model.
2:51 seriusly this made in Indonesia? 🇮🇩 penasaran pabriknya dimana ya? masak di mojokerto/ di solo? 🤔 🤝 $1,199.99 = IDR 32.442.472 nice 👏❤ gw custom di solo 3jt tuh dapet spek segitu 😊
So does this have a 60’s or 70’s headstock? In this video Billy says 60’s in the other Fender video that dropped the same time as this one, Tom says 70’s?
@@tonedowne i think it's not the same. If Gibson makes import guitars, those are not "Gibson" branded, those are Epiphone branded. This is an indonesian Fender that costs the same as some mexican and USA Fender guitars, even some Charvel signature series made in Mexico.
Nothing interesting as a signature model compared to others stuffs (Petrucci signature, Michael Romeo, John Mayer signature ect ..).. but I have to admit, their design are pretty cool (feminine design and soft visually). Why not as a gift or for collectionner.
Looking at the specs your not really getting much for you money. Basic materials, basic fretboard, 1 pickup, a volume knob, and no steel frets? You could get a guitar with more for less money, simply paying for a name.
charging $1200+ for a Signature Squier is pretty lame, at the least the strats weren’t a massive cash grab, Fender really could have done something special with this..
These are so ugly IMO. They're just so plain, as if they were made to be "sticker-castered". The neck and headstock are wayy too dark and glossy, and the colors are like easter-pastels. I'm going with the iconic surf green Strat alllll dayyy.
They didn't tell us if it's a Set Neck, although I'll bet it is, and how about the neck length??? 24-3/4 or 25-1/2??? rather important, AND, How Much $$$ does it cost and how about a hard-shell made to fit case????? Come On Fender, ya Dropped the Ball. These are things we want to know. (Although they want us to Dig into it all right???) Gees Boyz, go polish the Fenders🤪
I saw, I came, and I ordered the Surf Green.
Fine choice of color, right there.
You conquered 🫡
I came too.
I literally can’t make my mind up on the color. What a beauty. Thank you Fender & Tom.
The gold one looks sooo good
It's a solid pick!
Yessss bro
Yuck.
Oh man, this is cooler than I thought it would be. I love it.
I really want to do a demo of this guitar, so it looks like I"m getting a Starcaster!
Gibson lost a good artist man. I’m super stoked to pick one of these up

This was so fun to demo I need one 😆

You know they make really nice guitars in Indonesia right?
American price…..😂😂

Ah yes, Fender continues the proud tradition of no available left handed model. Thanks for always thinking of us, guys! Jimi and Kurt would be proud.
It’s deplorable.
I don’t care though because these guitars are crap.
Hendrix was a Stratocaster man mainly it's unlikely he would have given this starcaster a notice as far as playing it constantly
Hendrix is kind of a weird pull for this argument isn't he? Sort of the peak of "lefties can just make it work if they want" in history.
Don't compare Jimi and Kurt with such trivial musicians, they got lot of fans but they're not even close.
So epic! love the offset body design
It's such a beauty
I ordered the PINK !!!
It will not disappoint 🤘
I WANT ONEEEEE
These look so sick
MY GOAT
wait? made in Indonesia? wow!
Made in Mojokerto
@@MrDjambronk mojokerto tampil nemen luuurrr
No kidding. But really the shape of starcaster is more pleasing than ES335
About equal for me. If I could get one of his signature 333s for an actually sensible price, oh buddy
Duncan custom rather than the invader is interesting!
3:12 - please, what's the name of this song?
ua-cam.com/video/SlevC2V-zBA/v-deo.htmlsi=VHe5ZOHhthaGySiq
Healing by FLETCHER. Nick plays in her band it’s a great song.
@@Raechel-wg4dk Thank you! :)
this guitar just don't get out of my YEAD
Where can I get a guitar case for those?
Blink-182 and Angels & Airwaves* There, I fixed your speech lol.
And Box Car Racer
I never thought happy-punk will have any value in the future, but they survived (kinda), congratulations 🎉
I wish I could have that with a filtertron
🇮🇪 brilliant video sharing,
1:17 made in Indonesia..
Uma mistura de Gibson e fender, boa combinação 👍
Cool geeetar there!
Needs a matt black
Woah was that whole demo on the Tone Master? That’s awesome, I thought it was a real amp mic’d and everything!
Wow, these look epic. I’d want to buy all of the colors because they all look amazing. :D
Dunno if it would be better to just make my own with the proper blink inlay neck and the Tom stickers to get the “blink caster” look
please please just make your own, this release was utter garbage
Just me or is it weird not a single blink song was played on this demo??!
I think they just wanted to show it's versatility.
would of course risk getting flagged for copyright
Probably don’t have the rights to.
HYPED!!! ☠️🔥🤘
Are these limited edition models?
After watching this…🤔…how much was the squier version with 2 pickups again?
$400.
That played everything but a Tom riff 😂 im excited for these guitars tho!
Easter is over though. 😂
L ho presa bianca..è a dir poco stupenda..un mix tra la Fender strato e la Gibson es 333.. bellissima..la consiglio a tutti..
How long has Fender been building (Non Squier) guitars in Indonesia? I thought it was just either US or Mexico?
They've had Fender guitars made in China, and I'm pretty sure the Jim Adkins signature is a Fender made in China, I think they do it overseas only for signature artists who wanna make their guitars as affordable as possible, especially since squier no longer make signature guitars aside from the j mascis jm

Tom's personal guitars use the Indonesian bodies
You forgot Fender Japan!
@@boomstand2872 Indeed. Want the best Fender without going US Custom Shop? Get one made in the highly esteemed Fuji Gen factory in Japan.
The CNC machines needed to make the Starcaster are no longer located in the US, so it makes sense to build the bodies in Indonesia at the Squier factory rather than build new machines just for one signature model.
I’ve got the pink on the way🤝
Hell yeah!
🔥🔥🔥
Settings on the Master Pro please 🤩🤩🤩
Wow made in indonesia❤
This is alot better than his Stratocaster. Happy to see Stratocaster get some attention!
give one of those to Tory Slusher and she's gonna do magic guys
Been waiting for this about a year, im getting the Pink or White
really wish they kept the original starcaster headstock. very cool regardless!
the original headstock looks goofy asf😭
@@sk4tez182nah
Hello Fender. It’s possible to know the name of the “patch” of the Tone Master Pro, used at the beginning of this video?
Im from Malaysia.how to buy or order it online.
wah, he should be there playing
And no left handed version....left handed lives matter too.
You wouldn't actually want one of these though would you???
Agreed! I’ve wanted a left handed starcaster for so long
What differences with the basic starcaster?
you get another pickup with the basic 😭

hopefully neck pickups in the future
I mean then it wouldn't be a tom delonge model....
@@courtlandsampey9825 Lmao I know that’s what I’m saying. I’m just hoping the do like a starcaster player series or something

just improv honestly haha

So does this have a 60’s or 70’s headstock? In this video Billy says 60’s in the other Fender video that dropped the same time as this one, Tom says 70’s?
70s, the big one, like his strats!

Missed opportunity for sure. Hope they do eventually do a black run

They just don’t look right with the wrong headstock, and satin finished body, but gloss neck… wtf is the point of that?!? Hideous guitar.
ok!
No I'll pass on this starcaster
Will these also be canceled in Mexico 😂
You wish!
Come on.. play some delonge riffs! Or at least do pop punk!
100+ dlls for made in Indonesia 😮. I'm afraid it may not hold much value.
