Great Video John ! Totally agree with your thoughts - classic, simple, versatile. My regret is that I only discovered the joys of playing a Tele 4 years ago.

Fantastic video Johhny! Informative, humorous & educational. I love my Telecaster, but it is the heaviest guitar I own probably because it is an Ash body. I'm not sure what kind of "Ash" it is, but very dense...perhaps White?

Tele's are also built with a variety of woods. I would love to see you do a video on Telly's and the types of woods with their  different characteristics of tones.

Great demonstration on playing the different styles.

Great vid John,
I have had a Johnny Brooks, tele for some years now, costing only £60 new, I don't suppose it's up to the newer models out today but for the money, I have had some enjoyment out of it.

Great vid Johnny. Made me laugh. I personally am a Strat person - I've got a Squire Tele, but hasn't been played much of late. The bridge pickup is way to trebbly - perhaps I should replace it ....

Perhaps we should have a Tele-fest ...

Lots of great current tele players on my radar - Brad Paisley and Richie Kotzen to name a few ....

As with most of your video's though, this inspires extreme GAS. Stop it Johnny, you are killing us, I do not need a new guitar, I do not need a new guitar .....

Great video.

Informative, simple and easy to understand (for a not-English mother tongue person like me), and ironic enough (and this helps a lot to keep looking on at the video itself).

Bravo Giovanni even if, needless to say, you've convinced me to my next purchase. Telly is one of the few electric guitar
models missing in my collection...
