You guys are missing the point. I like all those too, but the Strat IS the most versatile.

if i was playing a strat, could you tell by the way it sounds?

peoples pre-conceived notions of the sound, based on the looks or brand of a guitar are so silly. i find it funny that aside from ibanez, and fender, you find very little brand loyalty in basses. the better basses win out consistently. as such, the quality of basses when you walk into a store usually out rivals the quality of guitars. granted, its starting to even out, but active electronics, 5 piece unpainted necks, neck thru bodies, alternate tone woods on the wings, etc... much higher quality of an instrument than a similarly priced guitar. but things are starting to change for the better the past few years.
