What is the difference between a Strat and Telecaster?
Lately I've been listening/watching a recording of the Eagles in Melbourne from their good bye tour. I notice they are constantly changing which guitars they are using.
Is there really that much difference between them?

From my perspective, each guitar has a different feel, a different voice, and inspires me to play a bit differently. I have a handful of guitars from different styles and eras but most gigs I will bring 2 and usually only play one. I develop a relationship with the guitar, the room, the band, and the audience, and generally don't want to change horses mid-gig unless there is a pressing reason to do it like a broken string or other failure. Different players feel differently but I get the tone dialed-in and the neck all greased up with sweat and it just gets better to me all night.
