Congrats on the new machine, William. I have a few Indonesian Strats and Squiers. They can be inconsistent but if you find a good they are great. I especially like some of late 90s to early 2000s because someone decided to use the 70s neck profiles I prefer.
I hope you enjoy playing that guitar for a long time!
Thanks Christopher, loving it so far and yes I have Squires, Pacifica's made in Indonesia from I think Cort, and they are great guitars. So a bit surprising that the Indonesian Fenders on the wall all had sharp fret ends. And the price savings just doesn't do it for me. I know I could have them dressed, but I like a guitar that feels right off the wall.
That is a MIM on the far left in black that I added Tex Mex pickups to and locking tuners. That is an awesome guitar with great fret work.
A Godin sits in the middle, again with beautiful fret work.

This year the diet is definitely gonna stick!
