My vote Tele deluxe!! I am not a fan of the thinline...I like the weight of the Deluxe and it is oh so sweet sounding! :D

I have both and the Custom. I think that all of three sound similar. The electronic is the same and the pickups are the same (except Custom: single coil at bridge). The only big differences are the look and the neck.

Thinline and Custom have a fat Tele neck. The Deluxe has a thin Strat neck. Otherwise, those are similar.

I have the Tele Deluxe, so I'm biased toward that one.

But if you have already played both the Deluxe and the Thinline, you are in the best position to know which one plays and sounds better to you. Who cares what anyone else thinks? Get the one you like better. 8)

I think it's best for you, who will be playing them, to try each and decide which one you like better.

I like the thinlines. :wink:
