If I had that sort of money for a Strat I would probably buy a Tokai instead:

That's probably just because I've decided that 1980s Japanese copies of American guitars are my thing, but they're highly regarded for the price.

I'd be tempted to get a lefty just so I can flip it over and get that authentic Jimi sound... That one looks fine, MIM Fenders get a bad rep but I can't see why...
I've got a late 70s Tokai Silver Star and can confirm that it's bloody ace, cost me less than £200 twenty years ago and it isn't worth that much more now...

I'm looking at getting a Fender Stratocaster, to play some Hendrix and Frusciante type stuff and generally to improve my playing by doing something a bit different from what I play at the moment.
US Sunburst Strat for £550 here:

I'm looking at getting a Fender Stratocaster, to play some Hendrix and Frusciante type stuff and generally to improve my playing by doing something a bit different from what I play at the moment. But, I've not been part of the buying/selling cycle or bought a guitar for 20 years, so I'm a bit clueless.
Does anybody know if this is any good for the price?
