Nah, won't read the whole 4 pages now... I'm sleepy...

Wanna a dirty rock telecaster but can sound clean rolling the vol knob? Bare Knuckle Piledrivers

How about a blast from the past.  :evil4:

Mr. Albert Collins has been rockin' the blues on his tele for over fifty years!  Often billed as the "Master of the Telecaster..."
Lonnie Mack, the white dude with the V in clip three is the reason I had to put a Bigsby on Valentina, my V  :headbang:

John 5 is so cool. A freaky-looking metal shred-monster who plays a Tele, and dabbles in some country styles! I especially like his playing with Rob Halford.

Man he has some gear!! 

Strange that musos of his ilk will get affected by radio signals, I would have thought at that level they'd have all sorts of shielding from that type of interference.

BTW, his tuner (Peterson Strobo Rack).... I have one of those. Very precise. Sexy to use.  :icon_thumright: But an annoying feature of that tuner I have found is that the on/off switch is at the back and you tend to leave the tuner on or off. Switching it from within the middle of a rack is one pain in the kyber...

Nobody is immune, especially if they're using single coil pickups. You get a high-powered AM radio station nearby and they'll inject right into your braces.
