MGR/Billy « Squier Hello Kitty Strat »
Published on 01/08/11 at 15:00It's small, it's pink and it has a kitty on it! This was my incentive to make this one tough mother of a guitar. I ripped out the stock bridge humbucker and threw in a screamin' Dimarzio Super Distortion DP100.
I saw it in a store used for $80. An evil grin came over me and I knew I had to pick it up and make it a shred monster!
This is clearly a costmetic purchase. Cheap hardware, electronics and questionable wood like substances are what makes this guitar.
They made this for kids and well a kid tells mommy and daddy that he or she wants this guitar and then a week later it is sitting in the corner. I can see why Squier did not put better quality parts in this.
I believe the scale of this guitar is 15/16th so it is just a bit smaller than normal strats.
The body is made from agathis and the neck is claimed to be maple. Well I think Fender just sawed up a few office desks and made this thing.
Aside from it not being the greatest built guitar in the history of Fender, it is possible to setup, hold tune and sound great.
This guitar was a strictly cosmetic purchase. Get some funny looks at your next gig. Drop a nice humbucker in the bridge and let this kitty roar like a lion!
