The 1st run Jets are a league above the 2nd runs
It might be that I'm very colour dependent and I also think (this is ridiculous I know) but the little plastic knob on the end of the bar cheapens the whole look ( I know I can remove it but It starts me off on the wrong foot). Unfortunately I have this feeling that I should give one (as long as it meets my visual and sound likes) a proper good go, I might be missing out on the "right" instrument.
I shall keep browsing as I'm not in a rush, its not like I've got nothing to play (although the Baritone may be moving on as It was an itch I needed to scratch and, as great as it is I'm not sure I can make enough use of it.
Tokais were a bit cheaper than Fenders and Gibsons and made pretty well in comparison to all of the above, so they were an attractive option back then, but these days any sub-200 quid copy made with CNC cutting will piss all over them; those new things genuinely are a threat to Gibson and Fender's sales. There is no need (other than some rose-tinted nostalgia), to buy any of those Tokai. Besides which, all those shite names they gave them are just embarrassing. Love Rock, Breezysound etc. You might as well write 'twat' on the end of your guitar with a Sharpie.
Does it have to be a regular SSS Stratocaster? Would a Superstrat be more suitable? Is it the Strat sound that you are after or the look?
What would it cost to modify your Charvel to have a Fishman Fluence SSA middle pickup and some fancy wiring?
Come to think of it, for under forty quid, you could rewire your Charvel according to the Fishman Tosin Abasi circuit.
Did you buy it @spev11 ?
I think I keep looking at strats because they are so popular that I think there must be something that I don’t get. Realistically though it doesn’t matter if I don’t “get it” there’s loads of other interesting and exciting options, so why chase something I’m not keen on.

The pickups on mine are top notch, the trem holds it's tuning and the guitar has that realistic relic look that 40 years gives.
I don't know what mode it is but it's a great guitar
It being refretted was not a disadvantage or at all unusual - they had very soft frets in my experience, although to be fair, many were bought by semi-pro players who used them hard so that might partly explain it.

Most of your wishlist spec could be achieved by modifying a Sterling AX40(D). D for DiMarzio! Again, trick selector switch wiring. (I suggest the John Petrucci 4P3T circuit.)
