For value, playability, sound, and craftsmanship: the Classic 50s strat and the Classic 60s strat. They got the OG harware.

The next guitar I buy - come hell, high water, whatever - will be a Custom Shop Strat. 8)

That's what I want, and that's what I plan to get. :)

It's near impossible to tell someone which guitar they should buy, because it's such a personal thing. But for me, you just can't go wrong with the American Standard. It's a great all around axe at a reasonable price. I can really find nothing lacking with mine. I love it so much I'm buying another. 8)

I can def recommend the American Special HSS, really love it. But in the end it's all down to you, your personal preferences and specifications. ;)

I have an American standard and an American deluxe and they are both great guitars.
But, following suit in what everyone else said, you can really only decide on what guitar you want by yourself. Play as many as you can and whatever feels right/sounds right to you is the one you should get.

The next guitar I buy will be a Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster. :wink:
If you're trying to decide which guitar to get. Get the one that feels the best and sounds best to you. I have a 2010 Am Standard. The neck on this guitar is one of the best I've played. It has CS Texas Specials. Sounds great too. It gets played more than my AVRI simply because I like the fret board better. If I could get the V-shape on my AVRI neck radiused and fretted like my Am Standard Neck, with the same finish on the neck as the Am Standard too well then I would have the perfect strat. That's what I'm looking for in the Custom Shop when I get it. :)

I prefer the classic series 60s or 50s.
