Even though all these are awesome, I need to get numbers down to a manageable level.
£350 is what you'd pay for a decent but generic used Mexican Telecaster. These are for anyone who's looking for something a bit different, with more personality.

Comments
Videos of them in action: ('scuse the crotch shot. Occupational hazard.)
It was a toss up between the 2nd and 3rd until I saw the trem one. Liking that a lot! (I'm afraid that I don't buy guitars any more though).
Good thing (for my marriage & bank balance) you're quite far away!
Good luck with the sales.
The effect of the switch is subtle, if I'm honest. I think it's standard Esquire wiring:

This is a pic of the wiring, maybe someone like @ICBM or similar will know exactly what's going on here:
