Only Fender makes Telecasters. Everyone else, even G&L builds T-Style guitars.

Correct, T style is what everybody else makes because, because only Fender can put the name "Telecaster" on the guitar headstock. Other than that its personal interpretation . Which IMO is great, because competition breeds continued innovation and progress , where monopoly breeds complacency and stagnation .

Bumping this thread with my new baby. Limited edition American professional with a shawbucker in the neck and a delicious roasted maple neck. Feel like the HS tele really gives me the tones I want, with that middle position being the real secret sauce.
