I didn't realize there were so many models either until I received a Fender brochure from GC. In the old days, a Les Paul was a Les Paul, a Strat was a Strat. Now, they have high, low, and middle end guitars. All makers seem to be doing this nowadays, and it's maddening to look at ads. Well, I'll see hopefully by this coming week how the guitar is. I have a good feeling about it.
