Why won't Fender reissue the Hello Kitty Strat?

[Happy Enchilada]

ZW video is proof that "tone is in the fingers."
So we should all pick one guitar and sell the rest ...
Dig the pink strings - nice touch!

I'd buy a Snagglepuss Tele ...
Exit, stage left ...

And the pink cable, and the strap, and the little pick box too, I hope

Nope. I quadrupled my money on the last one I had, but don't think this will hit that mark. I will play the guitar and you can't have too many fuzz pedals, but that's it for me. 15% off at MF if you folks do plan to order. Just call in and ask.

Cartoons were so much better back then.
I remember watching them after school and on Saturday morning.
Heavens to Mergatroid!!!

"A deluxe Hello Kitty gig bag is included?!" Well boys, I'm off to Fort Worth today to pick up one of these beauties!

"A deluxe ... gig bag is included?!"

Same as with many (if not most) of today's PRSi.

Ordered the pink Strat today!
I have plans for this guitar, there will be mods

Will be eventually ordering the fuzz also, when the braided pink cables are back in stock.

Fender missed out on a great opportunity to put a red humbucker at the neck and rotate Kitty's face so it's the bow.

 

[Hey_you]

Japan only-

Would be $2160.00 US dollars. Hybrid II

 

[Jon S.]

Like it or not, subscribe to it or not, Hello Kitty has struck a resilient chord internationally with hundreds of millions if not billions of people.

Myself, I think our world would benefit from less discord and more Hello Kitty.

Embrace the Kitty!

The guitars appear to be sold out in most larger retailers. Will they make another batch? Who knows.

 

[badscrew_projects]

Yeah I had to search among the smaller retailers to get mine and it was their last.
Same for the fuzz, these are being sold out too (by the way, it's a good fuzz)

 

[Hey_you]

Not sure if there are any left at regular retail price now. Pretty much sold out everywhere. Those I did see are substantially higher in price.

White (web exclusive) Strat is still up at the Fender's site
