For 100$ with the case (I assume gig bag) and the pink hk strap.

Am I dumb for thinking this would be cool for that price?

Also, what's up with with the used prices out there? 350$ on ebay and reverb? What did I miss?
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

Yes, cool for $100.

The stupid high price used is just hipsters with more money than sense.
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

Thanks for your opinion.

I'm guessing these were about 200$ here in Canada though I can't confirm...
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

I think they were cheaper than that when they were new. They're just one pup Affinities.
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

I thimk they were 100$ in the US but over here everything's almost twice the price with these things... crazzy
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

They were way cheaper new, but because Billy Corgan and Slash used them as a joke, they're getting more expensive each year since they're discontinued. A good joke on some forums is to go nuts with an EMG and Floyd on it.
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

Just make sure it isn't the small sized one. Should be the full sized body one.
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

Good point about the bodu size...didn't know about that...
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

IIRC, they were about $160 to $180 when they were available new.

Yes, cool for $100.

I'm no strat expert but that looks full size to me no?

I don't need the guitar at all but a single hum strat like that would be fun. Plus, I'm pretty sure my daughter would like it in a few years...
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

I thought a pink one would have been an awesome way to end a show when they came out.

yup thats a steal. Find a pink gig bag and your daughter will take to it like a fish to water.

yup thats a steal. Find a pink gig bag and your daughter will take to it like a duck to water. Those hello kitty straps aren't cheap ...big bonus. IMHO that guitar absolutely screams for a Invader bridge. Not only does it give the Kitty some ferocity, but it provides girth to the sound of the cheap thin Agathis body and a unique treble response.
Also, the fretwork is atrocious. Fret ends are jagged, and frets are not at all level. Totally needs a set up.
Aside from that, the aweful stock bridge needs to be replaced, with a Gotoh, I think makes one, and some steel import saddles.
The tuners never gave me any problem. The nut either.

put a slug with a Blackouts modular preamp and floyd it, i think it would be like the whole universe crushing down at the first dive bomb or at least your amp......
 
Re: Balck hello kitty strat available locally...

Well, I just emailed the seller. We'll see if she's available when I drive into town tonight for my BBall game...
