know there are two sizes, I ALWAYS order the wrong ones!
On the other hand, my strat was a beater partscaster I got on here that I ended up upgrading completely (I was able to reassemble the original guitar from parts that had been discarded in the upgrade process). I decided to go for a proper Fender Classic Player, gave the partscaster away and am now in the process of getting it back so that it can have a proper TLC session - I much prefer it to the real Fender. There really is no accounting for what you'll bond with. The nice thing about partscasters, though, is that as they have no or little intrinsic resale value except as parts I feel a lot less precious about upgrading them, so you can tweak it until it fits.
I'm also having a GSPBASSES body and neck finished and assembled by @rexter at the moment, so hopefully that will emerge in the next couple of months.
The 'casters feel different from production line guitars, though, in a way that I feel is more comfortable but might not be to your taste.
this is one my main concerns!
Ben, your budget will get you a decent quality Strat, and there are plenty of people on this forum who can help you select parts which fit together.
