is there any chance for you to try both of them out? in addition to pickup differences, the 57 sports an alder body, which should give you a more accurate fender tone. my take on this is to try both & go with what you feel & hear, despite the model's make. good luck 8)
Depends on what you like
Hi Writer,
It really depends on what type of sound you are looking for and what you feel comfortable with. No point buying an expensive guitar if you are not comfortable with it.
I.E. My fender has a warm tone to it instead of the usual bright tone.
Japanese made.

For what its worth, the specs of both guitars are listed in the following URL http://www.ishibashi-music.com/fenderjp/index.htm
For the record, the 57' comes in either
the ST57-70TX
or the ST57-58US
In addition to the different pickups, the body wood is different as well.
Since you have the luxury of the retailers being in Singapore, the best advise anyone could give you (and which someone already has) is to go down and play both.
Let ur ears be the final judge.
