I have a Telecaster and I enjoy playing it but it has one design fault - you cannot use a right angled jack plug to connect it to the amp. One of my 'better' guitar leads has a right angled jack plug, this allows a neat grip the cable with the strap when used with a Les Paul, an Anderson and a Gibson Melody Maker. The output jack socket on the guitar is recessed whereas on all of my other guitars, apart from the Strat, the output jack is flush or slightly proud of the body.

Use a Neutrik right-angle plug, they fit fine.

Mostly I play at home and unplugged. I have a Neutrik right angled silent plug on a lead but lately it has become a bit unpredictable. Some times it works, at other times it remains silent I usually play the Les Paul or the Anderson plugged in and I happened to have that cable to hand........

Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

Not that that guitar isn't a thing of wonder, Jon. I remember it well.
So my favourite Tele is an Esquire with the switch removed. But then I miss the neck pickup...
