quote:Would you recommend I invest $200-250 for a upgrade of the pickups/setup (needs new 5-way switch) in a Mexican made Squire Strat (I paid $125 for it) to keep me from spending bigger money on a real strat? I say this because while the electronics need improving the feel of the neck to me is great.

A neck fit in one's hand can be an elusive search, doesn't matter if you're looking at $200 or $2,000 or $20K guitars. Be glad you found "that's it!" without spending a fortune!
If you love the neck contour, absolutely invest two or three hundred bucks to make the guitar a better fit for the ears too. You may find you have created a "game over" axe and no subsequent need to get a USA made one. And remember strat pickups are interchangeable, meaning if you spend big bux on nice pickups you can always move them into a more expensive strat should you get one.
