Good question. The Rosewood Anderson does not have the classic bite/twang of a Fender Tele. It's a great rhythm guitar, but I don't like it for lead work. I got it because I've been a big Beatles fan my whole life and loved George's rosewood Tele in the "Let it Be" movie.
I have a '52 Tele Reissue I bought new in 1983. That one has the classic Tele sound.
Full disclosure, I reserved one of the limited edition Harrison Rosewood Telecasters from Musicians Friend yesterday. It won't be available till November though. I'll A/B them then.
