Hi, I was thinking of getting a new strat and wondered if anyone had any opinions on the tex mex jimmie vaughn and classic 50s series strats, i play blues and rock. Also is there much difference between the 50s series and classic player strats.

I considered the classic series and classic player series strats before buying my classic player tele. Gotta say the white jimmy vaughan is a pretty guitar and its texmex pickups are fantastic too. Its vintage correct'ish too. I didnt like the 2 point trem on the classicplayer strats.

It might not seem that helpful, you just need to personally check them out.

Also, on this website you can cross reference each model you mentioned and compare the specifications of the guitars.

Any of the choices you mentioned will cover the genres you like.
