An early electric guitar design by Leo Fender, which has a [bolt on] neck, bridge and neck single coil pickups, 1 volume, 1 tone, and 3-way toggle.
If youre looking for a [twangy] sound, look no further than a tele.
It is still one of the most recognizable guitars today, right behind the [Stratocaster] and Les Paul.

It the first completely solidbody electric guitar ever mass produced but was origionally known as the Broadcaster, it has two single coil pickups, a volume and a tone knob, and a steel plate bridge. I say its misunderstood because since the Telecaster has such a twangy sound it is commonly used by dance indy combos such as Franz Ferdinand and [Arctic Monkeys] which is fine, but what ever happened to the rocking Tele? I speak of [Graham Coxons] fine work in Blur, or Thom Yorke and [Johnny Greenwood] of Radiohead (best band ever), or indeed Matt Bellamy of Muse? Please musicians hear my call, bring back the rocking Tele!
