A few other thoughts I forgot to mention:
-Even though it is supposed to be a 70's Strat, it has a 4 bolt neck plate, and not the 3 bolt plate the 70's Strats were known for. Also, it should have a bullet truss rod, 3-way switch, and F style tuners, so the large head stock is the only thing that is 70's period correct.
-The belly carve was much more thick and less pronounced than my Mexican Strats.
-The overall dimensions of the guitar are slightly smaller than a Mexican Strat, about 1 mm smaller in all dimensions.
-The body is made of Soft Maple, so the guitar is very light, bright, and resonant.
-I had to give the guitar a full set-up to make it more playable. This included: I tightened the truss rod a bit, I filed down the nut slots a bit, I adjusted the saddle heights, I adjusted the pickup heights, I had to intonate the saddles, adjust the bridge screws, adjust the springs and claw tension in the back.
