I guess we can consider Esquires, Broadcasters and Nocasters too. :D

I still like Albert Lee's 'Sweet Little Lisa' the best :

My personal favourite tele player isn't really known for his solo's or being a technically skilled guitarist, but rather for being a musical genius. Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood is my favourite tele player, and you can hear his riffs and genius in every Radiohead song.

It's because of Jonny that I got into teles over most other guitars, and for that (as well as making amazing music) I thank him

I would have to say David Gilmour on "Dogs" or Jimmy Page on "Since I`ve Been Loving You".

Only a supposition that it's a tele.

The intro to 'Everyones got something to hide, cept for me and my monkey'.

Sounds like a tele on the chord strikes to me, for whatever that's worth. :lol: I don't believe anyone could tell from listening to the recording.

It sounds like a Tele to my ears too.

I'm sure there's some Gatton, Buchanan or others that some will choose.

Roy Buchanan`s - "Sweet Dreams" and "After Hours" are two of my favorites. But Albert Collins - "If Trouble Was Money" and "Cold Cold Feeling" are right up there too.

Sweet Dreams by Gatton, Buchanan and Will Ray. All 3 are masterpieces. Little Sister by Dwight yoakam. Pete Anderson does some great work in it

The solo in Little Moments by Brad Paisley is pretty much awesome (skip to 2:40).
