"The fact that people still want this blows my mind" – Fender Tom DeLonge Strat officially returns after 19 years, alongside a capsule collection of To The Stars accessories

Tom DeLonge signature Fender Stratocaster

It's official: the Tom DeLonge Strat is back after 19 years, it's $1,299/£1,200 and a limited edition. 

The Strat features the Seymour Duncan Invader humbucker, just like the original, for high output and big punk rock riffs. There's four finishes with Surf Green, Daphne Blue, Graffiti Yellow and Black for Fender's most streamlined Strat. All but the last one reflects DeLonge's Californian taste for "California" colours: "I always liked things that had timeless, classic kind of bright colours and remind you of the sun," he says.
