I'm looking at another Strat. I'm between the Squier Vintage mod HSS & Deluxe hotrail. Anyone got either of these? I love the warmth of my ST62 and she's great for overdriven blues but I just want something with a bit more snarl. Any advice?

Heading towards the Deluxe Hotrails I think.

Cheers for that DefJef. I've been sniffing around and found a good deal on the Deluxe Hotrail in the UK with free shipping by Tuesday. I've emailed Thomann to see if they'll do a price match but nothing back yet. I'm looking more at that one now after a bit of YouTube research. If I don't hear from them today I'll most likely pull the trigger on that one as stock is low.

I'm very close to pulling the trigger DefJef, a couple more Stella's and I'll probably go for it. No reply from Thomann but to be honest they've only got Olympic white where the UK shop is black which I prefer.

DefJef, why? do guitars come in other than black or white? not valid as my surf green J&D will probably be going to part fund this. Can't risk waiting really papache, 6 in stock at £79 cheaper than Thomann, loyalty gone when I'm saving around a 1/3rd on the price.

Due to musical differences I've decided I can't work with myself any more.

DefJef , why? do guitars come in other than black or white? not valid as my surf green J&D will probably be going to part fund this.

Yes, I was hardly being fair as I also have a black and a white strat - I love the white one in particular......and the black one . Then again every time a car drives past me in a particularly tempting colour I will always bore whoever I am with by declaring, "Oooh, that would look nice on a guitar." I'm clearly too far gone.

Not true DefJef, I'm the same mate. Every black or white car that passes gets the same comment from me. I've not seen a car yet in satin oiled red wood.

I need a Strat that looks like that.

Hmmm. Oxford Blue with a maple fingerboard and tort pickguard? Can I carry that off? Exactly my friend. Do it, my orders in.
