i recently converted from a LP guy to a strat guy. Mostly due to the fact that I finally found a strat that I can really bond with (owned 5 previously). Since strats have more variables and configurations, it makes it more tricky to find one thats just right for you, than it is an LP.
Nothing to really say that people here dont know. I was just sick of my bottom heavy LP tipping back on my lap. Love the comfortable body of the strat, and its more balanced weight. I also enjoy and use the tremolo, and I like the brighter crisp tones of a 50s style strat.
I will miss the sustain of the LP, and notes high on the fretboard of a LP have more punch than on a strat, but overall, I enjoy the strat more.
