well i've heard they feel the same and if you don't care about the different finish, better bridge and different neck finishing. then it doesn't matter. i'm going to get a 2008 despite the cost because i want these things. plus if i get a tele i want 2 tone burst. plus there's not s-1 and i like that

Hi Ho 1989, I played 2 of the new models today at the superstore,
white and 3-tone sunburst. They do look and feel nicer. They had no
2007's to do a side by side sound test but they did sound great. I could
have walked out with one for 940, but they had no rosewood boards
in stock. I also would have got a case upgrade to a G&G. Maybe next
month. That being said if I could get last years w/hardcase for 500 in
sunburst and rosewood I'd take it.
Good luck and have fun

There's an S-1 on the 07 HSS but not on the 08 HSS.
