Electric guitar...

Sounds like your making good progress! I went to buy me a new delay pedal a few days ago and started looking at the new guitars and I picked up this HSS player stratocaster and it spoke to me, I couldn't believe the quality of the new Mexican strats, needless to say, it followed me home, oh well, I'll have to save up again for my delay pedal!

Yes, they are nice. the price went up though . I believe they are $600-$650 ish? The Mexican standard used to be $499. I have both an older standard from 2011 and a player I bought when they came out in 2018 I believe. I paid $649 in 2011 and $600 for the player in 2018. I have gigged with both, and like that they are good playable gig worthy guitars but not high end. OP if you aare so inclined and ready ,check out Musicians friend or Sweetwater, get a credit line. You can buy a higher end guitar sometimes for 6 or 12 months same as cash.
