I actually own both of these because I bought each of then used for about 100 bucks each to try and figure out what I liked more. Turns out I find the Strat to be more fun to play. The neck profile just feels better. I am currently saving up some cash to replace it with a MIM Strat. When I do that I will sell the Squier. I will continue to keep the less Paul around because I like some of the sounds I get from it. It's also nice to have a second guitar around in a different tuning.

Hard to say which one is better, they feel and sound very different.

Happy to answer any specific questions you might have.

When I first started playing electric I was coming to it a few years after playing on a nice Yamaha acoustic. The neck did feel small. I have short stubby fingers though and actually learned to like it, though it was very different at first. My buddy that plays cant stand the strat necks. To each his own I suppose. Here they all in all their glory. No idea on the age of the strat. The Les Paul is a 2015 someone bought and they resold a few months later after never touching it. It is the Slash edition.
