Cringe. Only a matter of time before hes selling these pants for $150 just because they stamped a few of his Red Hot Chili Peppers logos on them.

Shut up, adults are talking. We don’t need Racist RFK III’s opinion.

A lot of them are the exactly what you said, including the standard artist series models that Fender mass produces for Tom’s. Lots of differences between those and what he actually plays. But This $3,500 is master built by the same guy who makes his actual stage guitars. There are lot of artist guitars out there that I like, and don’t even know who the artist is lol. I just look out for decently priced and high quality specs. Guess that’s why I’m a Schecter guy lol but if I paid $3,500 for any guitar, especially one made by the same builder that makes one of my idol’s guitars, im gonna wanna see how that baby plays and compares to other guitars. Hanging on a wall seems like such a waste and douchey thing to do i do agree with you tho. My “Tom” Strat is a partscaster with genuine fender parts including a USA neck which is better quality than what they put on their artist series guitars for him. Every piece from my bridge to the tuners are better quality. And it’s a unique color scheme. Def the way to go!

I disagree. That may be true for a lot of teeny bopping Tom DeLonge fans, but there are tons of artist models across all brands that get played. Even a lot of Tom’s got played, along with a lot of the wall hangers. What differentiates these guitars from Tom’s normal run of the mill guitars is that they are master built by Brian Thrasher who builds the guitars Tom actually plays. So why pay $3,500 for a master built guitar that in theory should play like butter, just to hang on the wall? Call me a dick, call me old fashioned but to me it doesn’t really get any more lame than that

Yea that’s true this video the rig was probably very similar to the few years prior. I think there is a noticeable difference with the new guitar/humbucker probably having some “better” cleans than the invader but personally I just love the grit of the invader. I like the cleans to have a little dirtiness to them. I know a lot of people don’t like that tho. Dirty Fingers is still a very high output in its own right tho so at the end of the day unless you’re a gear nerd paying attention you aren’t going to notice a difference But yes I definitely agree for $3,500 youre better off getting a nice modeling system or amp. Or like 3 better quality guitars lol. I can think of several Schecter guitars for around $1,000 price point that will offer better specs and playability. Anyways, the people buying these things will be hanging them on their walls, they won’t be playing them. So to each their own, but I can think of a lot of better ways to burn $3,500 lol

It was a similar rig but he started using delays and flangers and shit in this time, so it was definitely different and more layered than in the past. That dirty fingers humbucker isn’t that all different than the invader was in his past rigs. Guitars and humbucker don’t make as much a difference in tone as amps and shit imo. I know a lot of people here feel the untitled era was the best but I disagree. Tom’s tone in the TOYPAJ Tour from 2001 is undefeated in my eyes. Either way this rig in your clip sounds way better than whatever the fuck he’s doing now (digital and way too many backing tracks). At least here you can hear what Tom is actually playing edit- lmfao at the English baked beans and tomatoes being called out 😂

Man I hate those fucking Gibsons. So ugly lol. But I think you’re right and he does prefer those even though he’s getting paid by Fender right now

You sound like a douchebag who doesn’t know what Angel Reese looks like so you go around projecting and calling other people racist.

$3,500 for a single humbucker guitar is fucking stupid. I don’t care if tom signed it, his little drawings make them even worse. Anyone who pays for that deserves to get their ass kicked. You could be a vintage 50s-70s Gibson Les Paul for that much and the guitar will be way better, as well as appreciate a lot more over the years.

Y’all see the guitars grifter Tom just released for $3,500 a piece? Lol. Lmao, even. Tombots stay getting ripped off.

Yea exactly lol. I just be trolling but what an absolute garbage article

Whatever you do, just don’t look at blink-182’s set list.

I was just messing with you. I’m not huge into them, but based on comments I see it seems the opposite. They get a lot of hate for being called a metal band lol

What a feel good story! Im sure Jan will have something negative to say here though

Honestly when I saw the name of this thread I thought you were on some major cringe shit talking about the old Simple Plan clothing brand. Good to see that’s not the case, carry on.

Jarjar “Metal Elitist” Blinks

Yea but don’t tell that to Ghent or Jarjar lol

Yea I just meant see the light as in who she is as a person. Not asking you to stop liking her music. I just find the constant defending of her to be delusional (not talking about you or anyone here).

Cope harder. Im here if you need to talk it out. edit- I assumed you were being sarcastic but now I’m not sure. Maybe you’ve finally seen the light lol.

I couldn’t agree more! https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/nov/15/taylor-swift-silence-trump-administration-speaks-volumes

You do? Thanks it looks like we agree for once!

Banger:

I actually did watch that yesterday, he said it’s just because they didn’t practice those songs. (Aka Tom and Mark are lazy lol)

Pffft...you’ve never walked around with the teal Strat around your shoulders and it shows. (not sure why that was your conclusion either but ok)
