For years people have been saying that Teles are not guitars for heavy metal music (believe me the nay sayers are out there), I just saw Richie Kotzen (Mr. Big) on That Metal Show, and he once again demonstrated that Teles are great for Heavy Metal.

John 5 is a prime example. Have you ever seen his collection ? There was a photo of it once in Guitar World a couple of years ago and it was really extravagant. Telecaster heaven.
