If you do get one, only use a right-angle plug in it and make sure you always run the cable under the strap - otherwise it's very easy to break the pickguard if the cable gets tugged.
There are also quite a few 'superstrat' types with jacks in the side, although a lot of them use barrel jacks, which are crap and should be avoided if at all possible.

Mini strat might be nice doer-upper under guise of giving to my wee one...

I once converted one of these - the trem model - to a Kahler trem, which is far better than the Freeflyte, and fitted the proper teardrop jack. A vast improvement!

where it should be !
If nothing else, spare parts for the Freeflyte are very hard to come by, and they are not compatible with any other trem ever made. Even just removing it to replace it with another top-mounting unit - such as a Kahler - isn't easy, as it has a unique rout in the body which needs to be filled first.
All the ones I've played have had nasty skinny v-shaped necks too.
