Though I disagree with you, I can understand how you might see it that way. It's all a matter of taist.

Here are photos of my own Telecaster. Check on the link and look for the large photos of a 3-color sunburst Telecaster with white binding, maple neck, humbucker in the neck position, and three knobs. It's my take on Andy Summers' Telecaster.

Glad to see so many fans of the Tele and so many great pics. Nice axes guys.

My Tele is my go to guit-fiddle. I would have never thought I would own a Tele until I found one with the Maple Neck, and the two of us could not be parted. Would love to have a few more with different pick up configs including a '72 ThinLine.

I got about 7 tele builds going now. I will post some pics as they progress. Going to do a few with different pup configs....even considered a triple H... kind of like a J5 but done on a standard instead of a deluxe style. What is holding me up is I want to use a chrome plated steel pickguard but no one makes one in HH. So I got to break out the cutting tools on a conventional chrome PG and then might need to have it re-plated. Or possibly make an entire one from scratch.

Telecaster is Fender's best looking guitar.

When I was younger I used to think that the Tele looked like a deformed Strat.
Now that I'm older I've also grown wiser. :D

I find that the Tele has this nice compact feel compared to the Strat, which in turn is more airy.
I like 'em both these days.

Why are you so ignorant to come into the telecaster forum and say such a stupid thing?

Why bring back a stupid thread from 2011? Everybody move on. Nothing to see here. :roll:

Nothing for you anyway.

Of course the original post is just trolling. I assume most people reading the thread don't think Telecasters are ugly. Some might but it doesn't matter. So here are some pictures of my humble guitars to admire.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

You should relic that..but get the proper vintage neck and bridge first :mrgreen:



All kidding aside that is a beautiful Tele. How anyone thinks they are ugly is beyond me but as they say....to each his/her own and beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that sort of hooey.

The Telecaster is far from ugly!
