I have a tele and a strat (as well as an acoustic, a new Les Paul clone and a Epiphone Dot but lets not talk about my guitar issues...).
My instructor said something pretty funny about Tele's a month ago or so. He said when you play a tele, "the suck button is on". Meaning, there is something about a Tele that will not hide things if you F up. It sounds awesome when played right but if you hit a bad note on a Tele you know it. Sometimes on a strat or a humbucker type guitar the bad notes get lost a little more. Maybe it's because the Tele is a brighter, twangier sound that cuts through more. Dunno.
I love my Tele, I just wish I was good enough to play it well. My instructor wailed on it a few weeks ago during a jam session and it sounded amazing!
