The above 2 guitars are the most played these days... maybe because they are fresh additions in the house. Could either guitar be comprehensively better than the other? I find such comparisons trivial. Despite the LTD's Strat-based characteristics, it just plays differently from the Fender (American Special). The tone generated by both guitars are also different but to the average Joe, they sound like single coils so why pay much more for the Fender when the LTD can do the job? It's rather difficult to put across beneficial scrutiny when talking to such people. I talk less & give limited opinion in such cases; no use splitting hairs with heretics.

yeah, same as
"why bother buying couples of stompboxes when u can buy a multi-fx pedal instead?"
right? hehehe...
yup, such school of thought exists among mid-life players, sadly. it gets complicated when they impart such thinking onto their kids...
well...analog components offer tonal sound ;)
if it sounds good, it sounds good, analog or otherwise :-)
agree...btw thks for your insight on the new american specials as well.Got myself a hhs strat as recently
i fancy the Highway1 & American Special models, not being a cheapo or anything but these 'lesser' guitars display very high standards of QC & the tones are likable. nothing bad about them just that people tend to look up the tiers when 'Fender' is concerned.
