Stratocaster and Telecaster design: Sleek and modern vs. macho and vintage

[Red_Strat]

Macho/vintage looks, but some modern features under the hoods (such as no noise, 7 sounds, etc.)

i'd go for macho and vintage

[Bart]

I'm an old guy, I lean toward tradition.

i'll go for whatever sounds good...macho, vintage, new...i really don't care as long as the gig goes well and people have a good time. aesthetics and pogi points come in second to tone and playablilty.

macho and vintage, especially with the telly.
if its too sleek and contoured it doesn't feel like i'm playing anything.
same goes for sound. if its too noiseless wala ka nang challenge. wala ka nang ite-tame.

oldie specs, vintage tone, pero modern ang application.

if its a tele, i'll probably go with the vintage design... and if its a strat, the modern design attracts me more...
