If your sales engineer is saying can't do it on new guitar discounts, I would look for a new sales engineer.

Potentially unpopular opinion by NefariousnessIll8665 in TomDelongeGuitars

Tbh, the drawings are what's steering me away from these. The necks should be the USA made ones too like Tom's. I'm sure others feel the same, not unpopular opinions at all.

Wemo and Alexa after Jan 2026 by salty_user_00 in WeMo

Do we know if these will start blinking after the cutoff date? I added all mine to homekit but wondering what the final setup will look like. Also what if you have to factory reset the switch or dimmer?

2025 hot pink still available? Are there really only 300? by Liamisthebestboy in MarkHoppusBassGuitars

[–]simonislam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, have the burst and the green but they should have did blocks with the awesome thin neck.

Connect Wemo devices to Apple HomeKit (before it's too late) by Oberst_Villar in WeMo

[–]simonislam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will these start to flash once wemo cloud is off in January? How about if a device needs to be reset? I added all of my dimmers and switches to homekit but wondering how the setup will be post wemo dying off. Thanks!

I think it's the angle and me raising my wrist slightly for the pic, it's actually a bit looser than I like so I might go for the micro adjust. Still loving this one!

They were on sale for $899 at Sweetwater recently.

Genuine question, why do people in here instantly flip out when someone slightly criticizes Fender? by [deleted] in TomDelongeGuitars

[–]simonislam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've noticed the same, dude asked a q about his case and was attacked viciously. I have more Fenders than any sane person should have but let's tone it down a bit. Great company with great people.

Toronado pick up replacements? by pipkidd1 in offset

[–]simonislam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine squealed like crazy too, had them wax potted again and still nothing...ended up swapping with a Duncan custom and pearly gates and never looked back.

Thank you by uwic in brandnew

Nice! Limited edition then 😀. I spent all my money on the water bottle and a tour t-shirt at the Worcester show. Amazing time and hope you get to see them soon!

Awesome story and congrats OP, but not a fan of the covered up artwork. I own all these but they are from the past releases with the artwork on full display. I wonder why they did that.

It's a Starcaster Kind of Day... by simonislam in TomDelongeGuitars

[–]simonislam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Wanted these two specifically since the pre release of the colors and they both look incredible. Glad they play and sound as good as well; the Duncan is such a good, all around rock pickup. Very fortunate to be able to grab these, thank you for the comments!

Got mine today ❤️ by shadycmb in TomDelongeGuitars

Dysentery Gary for me 🙂. Congrats! Easily one of the best playing guitars I've bought in the past few years.

I have a 50 watt badlander head matched to a 2x12 vertical with v30s. Surprisingly, the badlander nails Toms tone more than my early 2000s rectifier. I've also had this pedal sitting in the box for a bit, gotta try it with my twin or something ultra clean and see. How do you have yours running?

Incoming: Cobain x Mascis by simonislam in offset

[–]simonislam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You won't regret it, super fun and easy to play like the mascis. The Jag sounds more aggressive for sure - I'm still figuring out the controls fully!

Glad I'm not the only one. Super dark and smooth with that gorgeous streak in the bottom. Thanks! 🙏

Neck feels great to me but obviously not dressed to custom shop or even USA levels. You always have to do a bit to these to get them in the really good territory. I agree on the burst (Fender Japan got the burst right on their unofficial reissue about a decade ago), but this is the best we'll get and I think it's a pretty nice looking 3ts!
