fender suck. get an ibanez. but back to the question, get a strat because a tele is more for less intense crap like blues and country and worse for actually playing music. of course, its not like a strat is all that much better (im severely anti-fender), so just pick what one is cheaper.

ever heard about: RATM, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Muse, Presidents of the USA, etc??
all those guys are using telecasters, and none of them is blues or country
and you talking about "actually playing music"??? which style would that be exactly??? michael jackson?!
