But I do like my modded MIM Tele.
My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youI recently got asked to paint a guitarbuild 1 piece ash body and now I'm bloody hooked so now organising making a vintage style one piece neck, the aged ones look great to me
The body was a really good one piece ash one, it's not even worth making one for what they cost to buy, never thought that would happen

The realisation will come to every guitarist sooner or later.
Seriously though, I don't know what it is, I just don't get on with them. Don't particularly like trem systems, don't like the layout and don't seem to be able to get a pleasing sound out of them.

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youTele's are for 2 types of music , Country and Western, but then i got mine and there is something just RIGHT about them
I set the trems up flush 99% of the time, and the beauty of the scratchplate setup is you can do what you want.
I've got a bunch of different plates for mine, most of the time I use a single H or H/S/S guard both with the volume pots moved a bit out of the way.
In terms of sound you might prefer a hotter bridge pickup. Generally Teles have a bit more beef at the bridge, it might be you've not tried something comparable in a strat yet.
You can wire a strat to do neck and bridge together and get pseudo tele tones, as well as all the strat tones, in one guitar.
To me Strats are the real swiss army knife guitars. Though I own both, and actually play my Tele more at the minute but that's partly because I got an evertune bridge installed on it recently which I personally love.
I've come to love telecasters. I play an Esquire, but am building a deluxe and a Cabronita.
Thats the thing there are times in my head I think a Tele is the only guitar you need in the world, there is an efficacy to the design and the tone., a good Tele is an easy thing to fit in any mix. They can cover a hell of a lot of blues, rock, country etc.
Then I get distracted by all the other shiny toys and the honest working mans axe disappear from my mind.
