Hello Kitty Club

Someone had to do it.... :lol:


I love mine.


The neck is the best I've played, including my real '55... :shock:


Needs new hardware & electronics though.


Who makes a nice hardtail bridge that will fit?

My fav neck of all time. I re-radius (7.25), refret and refin the necks and put em on diff bodies. Much love for hello kitty!

I prefer the 5-hole pickguard, though.

Bump for the cat lovers.

I can't be the only one in here (except for one mutilator :roll: :lol: ), can I?

I need a Badtz-Maru bass now. :cool:

Love mine too, altho, fretwork wasnt great when it arrived, had to have some work done on it. Wish it was routed for vintage tremolo....

I'm sorry but I gotta say it, "You *****" : )

I'm sorry but I gotta say it, "You *****" : ) Starts with letter "P"

I'm in. It's a surprisingly fun guitar.

Chicks dig it. Especially at a 4 year old's "Butterfly Fairy Princess Birthday Party"!

Well I don't have one guys, but thanks, I don't feel so bad about my pink paisly guitars now.:wink:

I get same comments every gig I use it.... the women all LOVE the guitar and wanna hold it and pose with it.... then the men ask me if I'm gay. Heh.

actually, it sounds pretty good, recently a few guitarists came up after a set and said, what kinda pickup did you put in that thing? And its just whatever came with it...

anybody know what the stock pickup in it is? Fender Atomic?

Let's see.

You get all the female attention because you're comfortable enough in your masculinity to play a
pink guitar with a cute little kitty face on it and the losers in the attention race want to think you're gay?

OK, works for me. :razz:

I'm not real thrilled with the stock pickup in mine so I've got a upgrade in the mail...

I'll post a review when I get it in.

I got mine for $100 off CL because the final setup on it was really nasty
and the poor folks that bought it for their kid hadn't a clue how to deal with it.

The neck had a major bow in it, mainly because it was strung to pitch with the trussrod nut completely loose.

Two entire turns before it did anything at all, loose....

Also, the nut to the jack fell off somewhere along the line and the jack was inside the cavity.

Anyway. All better, sorta.

It's gonna get new electronics & hardware.

New pickup that cost as much as the guitar... :roll: check.
New pullpot to coil tap the new pickup... check
Electrosocket & Switchcraft jack... from the parts bin - Gold finish doesn't match anything else - too bad... check.
Gotoh Klusons from the parts bin... check.
Neck inserts - Why Not?, it's a great neck...
Straplocks - got 'em already - Gold too, but different than the Electrosocket - Oh Well.
Earvana Nut? - maybe later - I like 'em but this one might not really need it.
Better Bridge/Saddles? - maybe later. Haven't seen a drop-in bridge replacement anywhere but there's a plethora of saddles.

Anyway, why not spend more on parts than on the original? :shock: :lol:

I gotta bump this to say that the pickup I got from http://www.smitspickups.com/ is the Kitty's meow...

It needs a DiMarzio pickup simply because you can get it in this color:

Too Late...

If I ever see one I am buying it. Too cool for school bros.

New ones are $199 from the usual online money pits...

There's even a Black Kitty for those who are squeamish about pink...

Is it a swimming poll route?

Is it a swimming poll route?

Mine has just a single 'bucker route with a rear control route

Then there's this one for the well-heeled...

I like my Hello Kitty Strat, its my daughters fault. She loves Hello Kitty and collect everything. So I make this HK Strat and she plays it..........and me too!
The next thing I do to my HK is this:

Nice, especially the Kitty face, but I'm not sure how well that model name translates into Ammurrican. :lol:

Who makes a nice hardtail bridge that will fit?

lol, very nice, but because it is a squier its going to have fenders import bridge on it. I dont know if your bridge, is a string thru hardtail bridge or top load so in this case. I looked up the string spacings for you.
Most Fender (usa spec or w.e you want to call it) use a 2 3/16 string spacing. I believe yours would be a 2 1/16. So it'd be hard to find a hardtail upgrade. But tell you what you could get graphtech's nut and hardtail saddle bridges. They have an import set as well! =]] hope that helps its like 35 shipped on ebay!

String thru body hardtail.

I ordered a bunch of stuff from Callaham this week, including a set of 2 1/16" spaced frou-frou stainless saddles for the Kitty...

The baseplate seems solid enough, has the holes in the right places already, and gives a nice resonant ping, so it can stay.

Thanks for the pointers, though. :wink:

If anyone wants to sell me the pickguard I have an idea...http://danielrieramusic.com/ebayphotos/KittyEsquire.jpg

I like it. But you're not getting mine.:smile:

Fender's asleep at the switch again.

I NEED a "Hello Kitty" Telecaster, too.
