I have no probs with MIM strats. They are typically well-made. It's usually sketchy to do a straight-up swap of a LP for a strat but it looks like your's is worth ~$500-ish on the used market and a new MIM strat is about that price also so it certainly looks on the surface to be a square trade.

The things I like about that strat-

1. it's white, they look fantastic in white
2. the neck on a strat is usually pretty fucking sweet.
3. it's very comfortable to play, especially sitting down, more comfortable than an LP due to the contours.

Things I don't like about the strat-
1. It ain't a Les Paul, the tones you will get out of it are limited, nevertheless, they are popular tones.
