Being as youre in the US, US Strats are easy to come buy and cheap. The Mex stuff is generally very good and well priced. Really the biggest consideration is the config.

Ive owned many strats, and my favourite, which goes out to work every weekend is a 1991 Jap 62 reissue. Late 80s, early 90s JPN, cant go wrong (depending on condition ofcourse).
Strats can be a minefield, but being as theyre all Partsocasters, nothing is unfixable. Just find one you like and buy it....
BTW- the USA Eric Johnson sig model is a very very good strat, good as Custom Shop without the price tag.

Stuart,
Thanks, another version EJ to try out. The wife bought a garden shed in May so I have some time to kill before it's paid for. The plan is to try as many as I can and save up enough so I don't need to charge it.
You say it works every weekend. Are you in band, playing bars, events?
Any Youtube clips?
