Well, there were a lot of naysayers, but from the looks of it Squier’s Hello Kitty Stratocaster must be doing more than OK, because they’ve just expanded the line with their new kid’s version of the guitar – the aptly titled Squier Hello Kitty Mini.

Ironically, unlike its bigger sibling, which was stripped down to just a single humbucker and a volume control (no tone control at all,) the Hello Kitty Mini is set-up closer to a standard Stratocaster, with a trio of single-coil pickups, master tone and volume controls, and 5-way pickup switching.
