i don't have one but I want one.A weird color though. Like creamsicle orange or sea foam green both sides bound in white.
I have seen a see through white with tortise binding. Looked very cool.

Hello TheClash101,

I think that a tele with binding
looks great but if I could have only
one,

make mine unbound
natural or blond ash.

Cheers.

I prefer my unbound, though the one Clapton played in Blind Faith looked really good. Saw a video a few months back of a free concert they had given in some park and he played a Tele with binding.

Unbound... teles are meant to be simple. Slab of ash, maple neck and endless chrome, its not a les paul for God's sake!
