I spent the day a/b testing my guitars, i set up an amplifier and ran all my guitars through it at the same levels to hear how the different pickups responded and so forth.
My Fender Jazzmaster had the broadest and most varied selection of useable sounds, it easily blew the others away sonically.
My Fender Stratocaster sounded like a Strat should, no more no less.
The Fender Telecaster was a disappointment, it has Custom Shop Texas special pickups and they are a bit too warm and fuzzy, Fender Teles are supposed to sound, well, a bit harsh and trebly but this one doesnt sound that way at all thanks to those stupid pickups, it sounds more rock than country and that isnt the quality i seek from a Telecaster.
My Indonesian Tradition Jerry Reed standard Telecaster that costs five or six times less than the USA model Fender Telecaster wiped its feet on the american Tele, the bridge pickup has an authentic Telecaster bite and the humbucker in the neck position has a really nice vintage sound to it, this is easily the best buy guitar wise that i have made, if i had to choose only one guitar to take to a gig it would be this one.
