Agree. They may be common and we use them all the time..they still sound good. I was giving a video a few years back, telling how to do the Lester Flatt G run. I and many others have done it thousands...and possibly hundreds of thousands of times. The only time I didn't play much, was in college. Anyways, the video is still up..where I discover that Lester Flatt was using part of the E blues scale..It is called bluegrass.

My experience was the opposite of yours. I had two Teles and loved them. In fact, I bought a third, which I thought would be different because it was a semi hollow body thinline. It didn't sound much different, and I bought my first Strat, which I always thought were the most beautiful electric guitars. I've really enjoyed playing it, and the unique tonal differences between the two. That said, get yourself a Tele. They're great and way more versatile than just country.

You can get the best of both worlds with a Telly Nashville (which I have). It's like a regular Telly (bridge and neck single coil pickups) but it has a middle Strat pickup. I have read that a number of Nashville pickers went to Fender asked for a guitar which could produce both a Telly and Strat sound because so much of modern country music sounds like rock and roll. Written reviews are nearly universally glowing. I happened to be in Nashville last week and one of the sales people at Carter Vintage Guitars (a destination point for any guitar player) gave it a lot of praise. Check out the KZitem videos on this ax.

I use 11-52 strings on electric. They’re a little stiff but I’ve used them so long that I’m pretty much used to the tension. When I play 10 gauge I usually over bend. But, I recommend going 9 gauge or 10 gauge if you’re having a hard time with bending.
