Is budget a constrain?
If so, you can go for a Standard HSS:

 

[IbanezFreak]

i changed my mind..this is the one i was actually refferring to..its a fat strat made in mexico..

 

[IbanezFreak]

and if i'm not wrong? the mexico fat strat is about 600-700 SGD?

 

[IbanezFreak]

and if i'm not wrong? the mexico fat strat is about 600-700 SGD?

 

[sonam]

It's the same model as the one I've shown, fat strat is a common term for HSS, price-wise I'm not that savvy with the local market, but it's about 350 - 450 USD.

quote IbanezFreak: the mexico fat strat is about 600-700 SGD?

no, the Mex HSS lists for SGD1,200. the US Highway1 lists for SGD1,400.

whatever you do , do not get that strat from swee lee and do not buy on impluse , i recommend the highway one hss as well

 

[markedymark]

why the negativity against sweelee mr zax?

there's been enough hearsay passed around about how horrid they are and i think it has to be justified. i find sweelee rather decent a place to get gear from.

feel free to get the guitar from whichever dealer you favour. let not the bitter, personal experiences of others sway you from getting a good deal.

 

[FPaulLes]

If we don't get Fender from Swee Lee, where else can we get it from? I really like the US Highway1. What's the differences from the normal strat which is made in Mex? I saw a Fender guitar in Davis for $600 plus only. Is it worth?

 

[subversion]

refer to the Highway1 review in SOFT's review section...

 

[zax]

swell lee maybe the nicest place to get an american fender , but there are other shops , like in penin , guitar 77 has a nice sale of japanses strats , fine craftsmanship those japs , try the 1962 reissues , it's my dream to own a real one . beauty in the eye of the beholder man , if you think swee lee has the best offer , then by all means go , but you do know they jack up the prices right , by sometimes 100%

 

[sonam]

And they give you great discount thereafter, you think you have got a good deal. Well, marketing gimmicks

 

[zax]

my sentiments exactly , support other stores and help em overtake swee lee

 

[subversion]

this is a guitar discussion. please take all store patronage sentimentalities elsewhere. if you think certain stores need to refine their business ethics, they are just a phonecall away.

 

[Godspeed64]

dont you just get bored of the constant criticisms of certain shops?!

 

[subversion]

of course. it happens.

people sometimes fail to adhere to the subject.
