I was thinking of getting a deluxe Fat Strat. Just wondering is anyone who owns or has owned one can give me some feed back on it. I don't really have many opportunities to try one out cause the closest music store is an hour away, but I will when I get the chance.

Thanks.

I don't own one, but have worked on some and I do agree with this :

"The Fender Deluxe Strat (HSS) is a hot rod of an electric guitar that is capable of a broad range of tones. Thank the guitar's 2 Tex-Mex single-coils and a bridge position Fat Strat humbucker with 5-way switching for its versatility. A late 60s "big" headstock and black knobs and pickguard give this Stratocaster a distinctive flare."

I'm converting mine to an SSS. Always thought the humbucker was out of place and badly matched with the single coils. Too strong for my taste.

I like the humbucker. in my standard fat strat. Nice and clear with great output.
