No.
My preference is nothing other than a stratocaster.
Teles are cool but not my style. Strat>>Tele

it depends on how people view whether strat is overated. play a strat, then you'll know why people go crazy about it. 8)

There are also those who feel that Corvettes or Ferraris are over rated as well. The great thing about a Strat is the fact that you make them look, sound and play however you want.

For many years, 'was not a Fender player and believed Strats were overrated. Then in '90, bought an American Standard, 'was rather surprised how nice it was. Not necessarily "better " than say, a Firebird or ES-335, but pleasantly different.

And over the years, 'find the Strat cases (yes, plural) being opened more and more often, comparatively.

There is something just plain "perfect" about Stratocasters, and many people across the world agree therewith.

In the company of the brown beer bottle, pancakes and syrup, wooden pencil, shot glass, claw hammer, #2 Phillips screwdriver, graham $@!&#*, Wayfarer sunglasses, khaki chinos, motorcycle jacket, Louisville Slugger, Manhattan pastrami sandwich, Rolex GMT-Master, diamond solitaire, Chicago hot dog, Schwinn 10-speed lightweight, Jeep Wrangler, "little black dresss", Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookie, button-down collar Oxford shirt, original "Monopoly" game, spaghetti and marinara sauce...

...some things are just "right" and can be fiddled with in detail, but their essence is all but "perfect."
