Yes, in a word. Go HSS at the start to get the rock sound. Or you have to upgrade and all that costs more money. The MIM Strat will make you very happy with the HSS. American Strats are better, the pickups are better and there are 2 more frets I believe...for those Gilmour soaring solos. But you will pay triple the amount for your US Strat. Used, maybe a deal, but used US Strats that are priced under $1K are rare and are grabbed fast.
Strat is the most versatile guitar out there. Good for anything.
