Nope I even looked at the Euro and Asian sites.. didn't find it.

Could try Google-ing Yamaha BAT GUITAR??? Shrug

They've apparently had this very discussion on the Kittie forum pages last fall:

Near as folks can make out, it is a custom job called the "Flying M" and no one has (of yet) seen it on Yamaha's site. Perhaps writing the manufacturer directly?

Peace

I seem to remember an article about a Japanese guitarist, who goes on stage in ceremonial costume (Kimono, huge "flying" shoulders, etc.), that played a guitar similar to that one - if only I could remember his name or the mag, where I read the article. :cry: :cry: :cry:

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.

Well I haven't found anything, so I'm guessing it's a custom job. So the only way I would get one of those is to have one made, which I'm not willing to do at this point. I tried the idea of Googling "Bat Guitar" ending up finding this:

Looks like Bruce Wayne's guitar or something. Well if Bruce Wayne were in a metal band.

I would be soooo much happy with the 50 year old stratocaster rather then a batcaster :oops:

And I'd be happy finding a V or Explorer that isn't neck heavy. Preferably new, the guitar I have now is at least 17 years old. Don't think it's vintage, but still want something new.

Not a fan of Strats, find them boring too. Though Crank'n'Jams funky strat made me go check what other Strats had some cool designs.
