My mexican strat has a great finish and the action is just right, although that shouldn't really matter since you can adjust it.

lets be honest, no guitar comes from the factory set up exacly how you want it!

none the less when i brought my 62 hotrod strat, it was setup fine, but had to be reset because it came with 9's and i play 11's and i like high action.

For the record, I rated this guy an 8, based on my experience. I very strongly recommend installing a Seymour Duncan tiny humbucker the the little '59 in the bridge and rewiring the S-switching to turn on the middle and neck pups for maximum versatility, but that's kind of a pain in the ass. I have a similarly wired guitar I used with my Tiny Terror and it sounds awesome, but that's just the sound I like.

This is one of the better strats out there, but it's very much a strat, and doesn't appeal to everyone, hence my 8. With a mediocre setup, I'd go 7.

I've got an American Deluxe HSS and my neck pickup also went bad.

I'm not sure if it's the cold soldering or if a coil broke, but the pu works most of the time and only loose the sound from time to time (mostly on very hot days). Anyway, when I tap it gently it comes back to life.

Are these symptoms similar to what you're getting before fixing the cold joint?

Difference? Lets see...pots, switch, wiring, pickups, bridge, saddles, nut, tuners, better wood selection on both body and neck, once piece neck, rolled fretboard, satin neck, contoured heel, micro-tilt neck, better finishing and detailed fret and nut work.

I have a MIM ash HSS strat. It is a nice little guitar and a joy to play. Compared to my deluxe v-neck it leaves much to be desired. There is no comparison. The build quality and playability are no where near equal.

And no they are not both made by Mexicans. Not sure it that was meant to be a racist jab or not. Either way ignorant thing to say.
