Strat or Tele?

Hi guys

Looking for either a strat or tele within the next month.
Budget is no more than £600.

I play different types of music e.g. Chilli peppers, Led Zep, The Beatles, Hendrix, The Smiths, Kings of Leon etccc...

Been for playing for over 2 years, so would say i was intermediate, i currently have an Ibanez RG350Dx and just looking for something a bit more versatile.

Been looking at the Highway one Strats and 50/60's teles.

Any advice welcome, cheers

If you're looking for a more versatile guitar i'd say strat, but I myself got a tele and I absolutely love its tone, and I also prefer the way it plays...it all comes down to preference, try them out

Personally I have never played a Tele. But I do own a Strat. It's great for Hendrix stuff and perfect for Frusciante stuff too. I suggest a Strat.
