Surely this means a Shell Pink (SLP) mustang isn't far off?

With the description "red" I was, I admit, thinking more like a CAR sparkle, but maybe there's something wrong with my screen's gamma as those crayons look pinker than I associate with scarlet.

I like that pink sparkle finish. Slap a Squier Classic vibe neck on that sucker and it will rock.

The Japanese website says that these cyclones are 24" scale... weren't the OG's 24.75"?

Also, are these new? I thought that cyclones had all been killed off by Fender.

that's what I thought as well. I guess they're still making them for the japanese market.

Sorry to dig this thread up, but i was looking for the red sparkle Tele and it seems to have been discontinued already.
I cant find one anywhere.
