Easy...
Then I played a '68 Telecaster and it all became obvious.

My thoughts are it's related to string tension as the action's fine bit not sure really. I love having some single coil action at last but I don't think I could ever gig with it. Not that I'm likely to any time soon!
Two weeks ago we played a pub with faulty wiring, and massive mains hum. Neither of my usual Telecasters was playable. I had to nip home for a humbucker equipped guitar, and spent the whole evening changing chord inversions and arrangements on the fly.
I just can't get used to the sound of humbuckers no matter how long I play them.

But back to guitars .. I regularly switch between Gibson and Fender guitars, and don't usually find it a problem.
Going from either to my LP feels a bit weird initially.
I've just acquired a 2015 LP Jr. Now THAT feels WEIRD! It's great to play in isolation, but the neck feels totally alien if I've played anything else beforehand.
But for those that play a LP everyday for 3 months and then switch to a Fender, or vice a versa, I can understand how that might then feel strange for a while.
