Re: Would you trade a USA Strat for a Gibson Les Paul Studio
Is the studio stock? I would say you're on the losing end IMO. I prefer the QC of MIA Fender over Gibson's studio line. If you want to unload the strat and get a new guitar, it seems like a win-win.

Used studios and Fender American Standards both go in the $600 to $800 range. Without regards to which one you should prefer (I like both), I think it is a decent deal. Assuming it is clean and stock, they are actually usually a little more pricey than a similar vintage Fender American Standard. Deluxes usually go used in the $800 to $1000 range these days.
The short of it is it is a fine deal, and fair.

Same, but if you would rather have the Gibson, then go ahead.

If you can meet in person and try the guitar and check everything is allright and you dont want a strat at all then yea just do it price difference is small.
Check the frets so you dont need to spend money on refrets or anything like this..

I have a '98 American Std. Strat in my avatar and a Gibson LP Studio in my signature. Both are great guitars and I would not give them up for a long long time.

I spent a few days considering this same trade a few months ago. Every time I look at my Strat, I'm very, very glad I didn't.

Strat is superior for playing IMO and a better model
Probably better specific build quality and resale value too
