exactly........in guitars I dont believe in a trade up or down, its more about what speaks to you and what puts a smile on your face

when do we get to hear it
Love the color of that one. That's not a semi-hollow body though is it? Looks like it has the arm rest, and no f-hole.

That's pretty much the same color as my MIM Strat ... that I can never get to show up that color with my camera. Love the color. Here's a pic of the color I found on the web thingy.
And here is what mine looks like today ... as best that I can photograph it.

Trade if you want, or sell it and buy something else so you won't lose cash value.
Certain guitars are special. If I find a special guitar I buy it. Cost isn't as important to me as is owning the "right" guitar. I don't think in terms of the money for the guitar, I think in terms of the specialness of the guitar.
I know a touring pro who uses a Squier Strat. He has changed to logo to Fender but it is a $200 guitar. I have played it and it is truly amazing. Amazing guitars are available at almost every price point. You just have to take the time to find them. Obviously it is a lot hard to find an amazing $200 Strat than it is to find an amazing $3,000 custom shop Strat.

Gary Hoey, guitarist of some renown, is best known for an arctic white Strat with a US flag pickguard - look closely and you'll see it has 21 frets (not 22), so it's Mexican made and under $600 (today's price).
Nope, it ain't the price of the guitar...

Very nice Rancid!

The one I'm trading for is a semi-hollow and has contoured back for kind of a strat feel. I just wanted to show the color of the one I'm getting. Sorry if I misrepresented what I'm getting.

I guess I'm in the camp of buy what speaks to you and don't worry so much about profit or loss. But then I'm also known for buying really cheap and not selling anything. 
I did sell a '64 Jazz Bass when I was in a financial bind and replaced it with a Squier which plays well and sounds fine.
