I'm somewhere between tentatively and aggressively in the market for a Strat.

Had my eye on the American Special, Sonic Blue with Rosewood, but there isn't one local for me to try out before I buy.

So I've been haunting the guitar shops, looking for something that grabs me.

But so far, I don't see a lot of difference between the M's and the A's.
