Fender Strat, Tele, or Jag...?

Question

So I'm in the market for an electric guitar. I went to the local shop and played Fender Stratocaster, Telecaster, and Jaguar. All guitars were in the $1000 - $1500 price range.

My favorite guitar was the Telecaster, followed by the Jaguar. Last was the Strat. I liked the Tele becuase it had a nice low & clean tone and had a nice light feel.

My question is, what are your opinions of these guitars? Is there logic to my preference or could I just be fooling myself? I'm kind of a novice, so it's hard to tell.

As a side note, I also played a Gibson Les Paul Studio and probably liked that the best, but that's a different question...

Answer 1

Hey! I've got a Fender Stratocaster and love it. Jaguars and Telecasters are cool as well, but Strats seem to be more versitile for me. You can get the twang with the bridge pickup and the full body with the neck pickup. I'm getting off topic sorry. Asthetics are important for you, obviously, so that should play into it as well. Of course it's a personal preference, but I love my Strat. I hope you end up with what you want. Have a great day.
