Incoming dream guitar day!

I've always been a huge fan of blink 182, that was the music I grew up on.. Blink 182, green day, nirvana, all those good bands. Tom Delonge may not be known for being a great guitar player, but he is known for being in a very popular band. His signature strat has always been something I've dreamed of, and I've finally got my chance to own one! Today I finalized the evil Bay payments and all, and it will be here in a week or so. I'll finally be the proud owner of a tom delonge signature strat, and I couldn't be happier! Photos to come when it arrives!

Nice. I am not a Blink fan but I have always loved that guitar. Congrats.

These are the photos from the ad, but I will take photos of my own when it gets here! I'll take the sticker off as well seeing as the seller said that he didn't have the time.

Cool.

I've always loved the stripped down rock machines, and I like his sig guitar too. I actually bought all the parts to build a Dulonge inspired Strat, but with the following mods:

-Seafoam (instead of Surf)
-Maple (instead of rosewood)
-Reverse CBS Headstock
-Double Invader with Lynch style switching

Unfortunately when I mocked it up, it just didn't work nearly as nicely as his!

Congrats, can't wait to hear your impressions.
 
Re: Incoming dream guitar day!

Thanks guys! The best part I think Is what i paid. 340 plus shipping! I couldn't find a signature model for that cheap anywhere else.
 
Re: Incoming dream guitar day!

Cool. Hopefully this is not an Iceman front moving through….


Keep us posted!

It's a way deeper version of "Pics or it didn't happen"
 
Re: Incoming dream guitar day!

Guitar shipped today, photos of it in my hands will be up when I have it, without the sticker of course
 
Re: Incoming dream guitar day!

Iceman (noun). Pointy Ibanez guitar design, originating in the Seventies.

Iceman (verb). To behave like the one-time forum member who used this name as forum ID. Specifically, to begin a New Guitar Day / Guess What I Bought "teaser" thread but never return to tell everyone what the goshdarn guitar actually is/was. In other words, a highly specialised form of trolling.

RELATED
Icetrozombie (verb). To give advanced notice of a pending NGD, discuss the instrument at considerable length then not actually go through with the purchase.
 
Re: Incoming dream guitar day!

Thanks for the info funk, but we won't have to wait long. Guitar was shipped priority 2 day and should be here tomorrow already!
 
Re: Incoming dream guitar day!

Smart purchase. I got mine a few months a go for a smoking deal and it's doubled in value since.
 
Re: Incoming dream guitar day!

Update: guitar is sitting at my house, as I sit in class and stare at the clock waiting to go home to play it. I'll have photos and a little review of it up later today 😊

Slimming down to 1 guitar. Want it to be HSS, need it to be very versatile.
