The MIM says "Fender" on it, the other one doesn't.
The guitar doesn't know the difference, it's just a resale thing.
But if you're not planning on re-selling it soon, then that makes no difference.

There’s a daphne blue MIM on Facebook that looks good.
That said, I maintain the best strat I’ve ever played was my Squier Deluxe, sonic or daphne, forget which. But the neck was frikkin beautiful!

I'm sure if you talked to the NZRS guys nicely you could get this for close to $600...

Basically anything 2007ish or newer. Vintage modified, classic vibe - you can’t go wrong. Standard fine too but classic vibe nicer. You’ll be buying used unless Dave can do you a mean deal.Daza152 wrote: Please elaborate....? and on a side note what would you recommend in the Fender/Squier family for 600 bucks?
