nurktwin 2,143 Report post Posted October 20, 2010 if you had a choice of 2 Fender model guitars, what would you choose? a Strat or a Tele? don't get into all the models of each model or a year. keep it simple, a Strat or Tele American made. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandlinvegas 1 Report post Posted October 20, 2010 Got to go Tele. Have one and love it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weird monkey 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2010 Can't have one of each? Tele then. One with a B bender. Then I'd force them on a friend who can actually play. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DCAHNM 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2010 I prefer the tele too... I have one also. I don't play it much.. (I using the term "play" loosely). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AngelDream 16 Report post Posted October 21, 2010 I'm saying Tele too only because I think they're a prettier guitar...lol. They had a special on VH1Classics a few days ago celebrating the 50th anniversary of Telecasters, they had 7 or 8 musicians up on stage (which I could remember who all was there) each with a Tele...it was awesome to watch, sounded great too!

guitarstudent 8 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) Well, both have their advantages but I'll take the versatility of a guitar with 3 pickups so I gotta vote Strat. Of course, they make it complicated by now offering a 3-pickup Tele.... Here's the latest addition to my family. (Sorry, not American made but quality is excellent and the finish is, well, amazing.) Since you specified American made, second picture shows why I vote American made Strat. Strats just have that look..

Sugar 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Pretty pictures! I can't comment too much on my preference, cause I don't play them, just enjoy listening to them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weird monkey 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2010 Along with the general shape of the instrument, the output connector on a strat has always intrigued me... Anyone brazen enough to hazard a guess as to why it looks like that? Coincidental, deliberate, subliminal? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
