Alvin and the Chipmunks Stratocaster
Jon at Guitar Noize asks who would want a Fender Alvin and the Chipmunks Strat? Fair question Jon, but you have never met my GSite coworker, Stace. Biggest, most obsessed, Chipmunk fan ever. Anyway, Fender is giving it away and if your in the U.S it could be yours to own. Enter at http://www.fender.com/freestuff/alvinandthechipmunks/

All,
you can't buy them, they were made for promotional purposes only for Twentieth century fox and one was given to the Fender.com website winner.
How do I know this? because I built them, they rock...
thanks,

Question for Dave Collins: I'm assuming these guitars were custom shop made? What sort of pickup was used and how many of these were made total? Thank you.
Regards,
Isaac

22 total.
These guitars were made in the Corona Factory but these did not come out of the Custom Shop. They do have Made in the usa on the back of the headstock next to the serial number and the pickups are the same hand wound pickups that come from the Highway one guitar that comes from the USA line made in Corona.
Thanks,
Dave Collins

Thank you Dave! I very much appreciate your speedy feedback. I was lucky enough to have bought one on eBay and plan to hold onto it for life! I'm a huge fan of Fender guitars and this will be my prized possession!
Kind regards,

Hi Dave,
Not sure who the original owner is. The seller mentioned that he was selling on behalf of a lady who had won the guitar at a radio station sweepstake. The serial number is Z7271048. If you could authenticate, that would be fantastic! It would be assuring to know I got the real deal! Thank you.

Hi Dave,
Got the guitar in this afternoon and it definitely looks to be all original and brand new condition! It has the Twentieth Century Fox label as well (screen printed on lower edge of guitar). Were you able to find out more details by the serial number?
I absolutely love the guitar!

I am selling one of these guitars. I won it from a radio station and gave it my son who has played it maybe twice. He needs the money for college tuition. It is worth over $2,000. He is asking $1,400. for it and that includes a $125.00 hard case that he bought for it. Selling only to a US address.

Hi Dave,
Thank you so much for confirming that the guitar was sent out to IL! The eBay seller that sold me the guitar is located in Chicago IL. I absolutely love the guitar! I have only played it a handful number of times....it is just too nice to be played! :) Will be holding onto it, as I probably won't come across another one of these super rare guitars!
Thanks again!
