I'm trying to think of all the led zepplin ones right now. It's said that Jimmy Page sold more Gibson Les Pauls playing on a telecaster than any other musician.

That being said I don't want to get bored with the tele now that I've got the right one.

Right now I'm thinking Johnny Cash Folsom Prison Blues and Brook Benton Rainy Night In Georgia.

Throw me a few fish with your favorite telecaster songs.

Roy Buchanan 'Sweet Dreams'. Anything from that album (Roy Buchanan) really. A true master of the tele.

Nobody else? OK, how about Wilko Johnson 'She Does It Right' or 'Roxette'?

Thanks,
I've been plowing through a lot of Led Zeppelin tonight on the tele. I used to play many of those tunes when I was in a classic rock/blues band in the 90's. It's been a fun trip with modern technology coming considerably closer to the original tone than I did back then. Same with Rolling Stones. Until recently I've been trying to put much of that behind me after I quit drinking. Playing live made me a mean drunk and destroyed my life so I had to give it all up and stayed away from the songs as I didn't want those memories to come creeping back in. Now it's just plain fun.

Jimmy Bryant is a name I'd never heard of till about 20 years ago. He was the original Telecaster Master
