That can be a blessing or a curse.
For me the overtones are what makes the guitar sound so special. Its all that extra harmonic content sprinkling extra lovelyness over everything you play.
However I think for a lot of people its what they struggle with.
As always, play both and buy the one you prefer.
The hardtail just looks wrong to me.
I've played this model and it was excellent

I find the trems on these squier pretty good, with none of the loose trem arm syndrome which has plagued some of my other more expensive offsets (although easily remedied thanks to staytrem).
My only annoyance with the deluxe is the adjustomatic bridge, it doesn't rock as others have said and this will always be a problem if you use a trem frequently/heavily. Staytrem no longer make their version of the bridge and the other versions won't fit in this guitar. I was going to get a roller bridge but people have had mixed success trying to find one that fits.
My advice would be if you're a heavy trem user go and get the VM Jazzmaster instead.
When we have cleared the backlog of orders they will be available again.
I've been waiting for one of those bass VI bridges to come back in stock, same message for those too.
The other issue is that as those roller bridges are mainly designed for Les Paul/Gibson type models you're going to have the same radius mismatch that you get with the stock bridge. This bothers me less than the lack of rocking motion though.
Nice guitar by the way. They really should do another run of those, pity Squier decided to move away from artist models.

But I agree, having had both I'd go for the VM too.
