I like it, but I wouldn’t call it beautiful. I own the tele and I feel the same about it. Some guitars are beautiful and in my opinion, it is not! Regardless, I love playing it and I have zero regrets paying two grand for it. It is a well made guitar and plays beautifully. I guess I’m not alone in feeling this way because Fender has struggled to produce enough to keep up with demand. That answers your last question about what Fender is thinking. They’re thinking the Stratocaster will sell as well as the Telecaster.
