Rick: here are 2 videos from YouTube comparing Squier to Mexican Strat to US Strat. The poster seems to think Mexican Strat worth it over Squier but American Strat not worth it over Mexican. I think Fender has changed the model nomenclature recently.
I had been casually looking around on Elderly for a while for a good deal on a used Strat but did not see anything cheap enough to pull the trigger. Hope this is helpful.
Or guidance. After a lifetime of steering away from electric guitars, or even amplified ones, I've started to get an itch. I think I'd like an electric guitar just to screw around with. I like the Tele or Strat type bodies, but don't want to spend an arm and a leg in case the urge dwindles out. Anyone here play an electric guitar and have any suggestions as to what I could look for as a starter? Hey, Christmas is coming! Thanks!
PS I do actually own one electric guitar, a Hofner bass. But I'm talking six string here.
