sa sobrang daming differences ng tele sa strat... mas maganda, if you have the chance, play both. sobrang basic nung sinasabi na "tele twang" and "strat quack", but the thing is you can approximate the tele's twang with the right set of pickups on a strat, and vice versa. hanap ka na lang ng store which has both and play your heart out. before, i never understood why richie kotzen ditched his ibanez for a tele, but then i got to play a fender usa tele and was blown away. of course, i love my strat also, made me appreciate yngwie shredding on it a lot more.
