I consider myself a drummer nowadays but put in a couple of decades playing guitar. Having had various fenders, an Ibanez, some epiphones and a couple of cheap LP copies I think my favourite has been the Epiphone 335 style Dot in vintage sunburst purely for looks. If I could've given that guitar the sounds of the Mexican tele but considerably louder I had I would've been a happy boy.
Good to see you all like Tele's here, I did love to record with mine but as a 6' 2" guy it always felt too small for me even though it was really heavy. In fact so heavy it confused the sales guys, they were convinced it had a Mexican fender employee's severed hand buried inside it somewhere as they handed it over.
