Those were killer super-strats. This guy was probably the highest profile player to use one.

One of the 80s dudes. I rate him in the top 10 of the big hair virtuoso shred decade.



All finger picking with a dash of Country - the guy could burn with ANYONE.

Break that starts at 2:16 makes my jaw bleed every time.

New nylon. Sounds like sex (though it has poor intonation)



Not my photo but same model

At the end of the day it was just another American Standard, if I find myself longing for the love of a Tele again it certainly won't be hard to find myself a nearly identical model for the same price I originally paid.

I have my MESA Lonestar 2x12 listed as well right now. Also sad to see it go but likewise since I got the SG I've been playing my Single Rectifier a lot more and it's really all I need for the band I have going right now.
Over a year later, with the motorcycle paid off, I just happened to find my old Telecaster listed on Craigslist in Vancouver last week, drove out and bought it back yesterday. I've been belly aching about selling it for a year now and keeping my eye out for used Telecasters of the same generation, so glad I found my old one, it's still set up exactly the same as the day I sold it and the two fellas that have owned it over the last year really looked after it well (or just didn't play it much). Glad to have it back.

In its case just out frame, didn't want it to see me walking in with my ex.

The SG is still my main squeeze for gigging, but the Tele was always my choice for writing and noodling at home.
