JAKARTA - Frontman Blink-182, Tom DeLonge has just introduced his latest guitar series. He collaborated with Fender to release this beautiful Starcaster-model guitar.

In specifications, this guitar may not be too flashy. Having a semi-hollow design with a pickup from Duncan SH-5, makes it look minimalist.

Like a signature guitar of musicians, DeLonge has given some personal touch from the Starcaster blueprint that has existed since 1970. The color is also made a bit eccentric with a soft pink touch with a black list.

There are certain reasons why Tom DeLonge chose the Starcaster as the signature guitar base. The reason is nothing but interest in space and UFO matters. Tom holds the official title as a researcher in foreign objects in the still mysterious sky.

"I really like this guitar. It's the coolest guitar ever. First, because it's called the Starcaster, and that's the most important thing. It reaches outer space and will expand its mind," Tom DeLonge told Billboard, Wednesday, April 17.

Tom DeLonge's signature guitar is labeled to be priced at around 1,200 US or around 19.4 million rupiah. The price was widely responded to by music lovers, but seeing his status as a'signature', it seems that the figure is quite decent.
