That just may be the ULTIMATE heavy metal/ thrash/ punk guitar of all time!!! Right up there with the "Hello Kitty" Strat.

Very cool. That should be available to the US market. Not all yougsters want Hello Kitty guitars.

I saw her in the video playing Pipeline. She did a good job and deserves her new Strat.

I agree as well. MIJ's should be sold in North America. I know my daughter would love a Mickey Mouse Stratocaster.

Get a Hello Kitty Strat on stage with her and they can chase each other around!

It's cute and kinda cool.

Is there a special reason why they dont sell MIJ guitars here in the US ??? I mean there has to be a REASON right??
because I think that with all the free trade and free market and etc there should actually be MIJ strats for sale here in the us..... so if they are not on sale here there should be a reason behind it all........
Do you guys think maybe they are afraid that MIJ could take over ??? just like the automobile industry????? I cant think of anything else thats reasonable :) :)

They wanted to use MIM guitars to fill that price range.
Maybe the MIJ guitars started cutting into MIA sales.
