There ya go!!

Suggest it to Fender and get a signature Strat!

However, it has been done before, but Fender will give anyone a signature Strat if it sells more guitars...

Buddy Holly - dead
Hendrix - dead
SRV - dead
Clapton - may as well be, never had decent tone after switching from his LP
Greeny - gets rid of his LP suffers mental breakdown now plays strats, might as well be dead.
Gilmour - needs 3 racks of effects to get his 'tone'

Say no more....

LOL! May aswell be dead....

So harsh...

Hey Rog why not get the best of both worlds and get a Gibson Victory MV (1980's Gibson knockoff of a Fender strat) and a Fender Coronando or Starcaster (1960's/70's Fender knockoffs of a 335) -that way the Grim reaper will probably shake his head and move on rather than try to figure that mess out.

Actually that's one thing I regret - passing up a Fender starcaster (the type Julia of Fur Patrol plays) and a Fender solid 12 back in the 70's (came across probably the only 1 in NZ and did not grab it - idiot) But I did eventually get my current Jansen Invader XII (NZ knockoff of Fender 12) so all is not lost.

Loved the pink Daisy 335 style 12 as well.

I saw a nice Dano 6/12 the other day.
That'd suit you, mate.
No-ones collection is complete without a Dano!

I have absolutely no idea who Tom Delonge is, but are you saying he's a nob?
