I have an Xaviere semi-hollow, I play it all the time. Great for the money. With that trem, you won't get so much range that locking tuners won't do as well as a locknut. No brainer at that price, I just don't particularly need a Strat.
 
Thanks for the responses, all.

It's coming 5-day ground shipping so I'll have it some time next week. I'll post pics and a review. :)

The GFS pickups are supposed to be pretty nice.

A friend gave me a MIM Fender Strat recently that needed pickup upgrades so I bought some Guitar Fetish pickups to try them out. I installed a couple of their single coils in the neck and middle positions, the middle is a reverse polarity, and a Retrotron in the bridge. The Retrotron is a copy of a Gretsch Filtertron that I installed with a coil tap switch-it sounds way better than the stock pickups ever did.

I also added a Lil' Killer doubleblade humbucker to my 74 Sunburst Strat-it sounds freekin' huge now!! This Strat has been with me for 30 years now-I learned a ton of stuff and gigged many, many gigs with it..

I can vouch for GFS pickups, and the other guitarist in my band can vouch for Agile guitars as well as GFS pickups. Just all around good stuff for good prices. Still need to try out the Bill Lawrence pickups though >.<
Post clips as soon as possible!
 
...get a Heritage! :D:D:D

Okay no not really :p Hope the guitar turns out to be a good one :)

I copied the chainsaw gif that you posted to my hard drive, and attempted to upload it as an image to my signature, and the board software gave me an error message that animated gifs aren't allowed. :confused:

It must like you better than me. :(
