There's no better or worse between these two. Guitarists use one or the other for the sound they want to create.

The audio isnt too good. Sounds too compressed for me to say which one sounds better.

Youre doing that Tele a massive disservice. It sounds much better than that.

My tellecaster don't sound shitty like that

The tone sounds nothing alike in this at all. The Tele is way darker for some reason so either the EQ settings are different or you have the tone down

The Rembrandts actually used both guitars on different occasions whether it be as rhythm or lead, they’re both very versatile apparently.

Ah yes. The Strat homeboy.

I like those schecter les paulocasters through that good old Mesa jcm 9000 super reverb

Just depends on what tone you want. It's all subjective

Do you know how to get a good sound out of either of them? Sounds like the tone knob is rolled back on both but moreso on the tele- which should sound as bright or moreso than the strat

I love both. Totally different sounds.

I’ve got a Strat from 1993 and a Tele from 1994. They compliment each other so well. Both sunburst. Rosewood Strat fretboard, maple Tele. It’s nice to have options. Strat plays a bit nicer but that’s circumstantial.

Thank you 1000 times for testing the pickups clean and with a song people know.

Not sure if this video is a joke (please correct me if it is) but they both sound bad 😅

I actually got to know Phil Solem from The Rembrandts a bit. I went to his birthday party and helped him move out of his apartment when he went to live in Nashville. I got to play one of his guitars for a bit 😁 He's a cool guy, very down to earth and humble.

I’m always a Strat guy . What model player tele and vintnera strat?

Thanks man, this comparison validate some thoughts I had back then. Now I'm gonna craft my tone to fit my tele (it was setup when I used my Strat, didn't notice they had that much of a frequency of how they drive the amp differently, duh).

WHERE IS THIS TUNE FROM??? I CAN'T REMEMBER!!

I have a 52 Tele reissue and you can’t beat it. The Tele would sound better on that riff on the bridge pickup. The Strat is on the Bridge and Middle.

My god that strat looks beautiful is it fiesta red?

They are both great, I am going to start my large collection of Stratocaster and Telecaster guitars and also Basses American Profesional II. Greetings from México 🇲🇽

In this last month I prefer the Telecaster sound because I love Country rock and Telecaster is so perfect for that music!

whenever I hear this song it makes me wanna clap my hands

There’s a rebirth thing going on with the telecaster while it’s amazing and versatile the Stratocaster sounds better, plays better and had more sounds because it has a five way switch versus the telecasters three way switch. I own several of these guitars and I love all of them, but one of my American standard Stratocasters beats them all. I think it was a good build.

NOONE TOLD YOU LIFE WAS GONNA BE THIS WAYYYYYY

The strings on the tele are older and it seems like you’re comparing a Mexican tele to an American strat. Not a good comparison at all. Test both with same age strings and either both American or both mexi.

Outrageous, and I will repeal it!

You're comparing a Mexican Player Tele against a US Am Performer Strat. The latter has Yosemite pickups with have much more articulation and clarity. I have both guitars and I think this is not fair. And while I think the Player instruments are great for the money, they certainly cannot compete with what you get within double the price range.

That compressor working real hard on the tele

You should compare with same price and ampli-effect specifications.

It’s all about preference. Is that a reissue Strat or a real 50s?

You used what is often considered the worst settings on a Strat and compared it to the most common tele settings

Take the bridge pickup off the Strat and put it on the Telecaster and you got the same sound

So no one told you life was gonna be this way 👏👏👏👏

Did you know Jimi Hendrix recorded Manic Depression with a Tele?

Both sound great

I’ll always take the strat over the tele even though I love them both. Strat just had so many pickup selections and also the trem. Also just depends what I’m playing or creating

My favorite guitar is definitely the Gibson SG

Depends on what kind of sound you looking for, you can always play with the tone

The Strat

Is that starto caster american sandart? Or what type?

Definitely telecaster

I owned an 🇺🇸 strat , now want an 🇺🇸 professional 2 telecaster Miami Blue ‼️👍 So BOTH 👍

What song is this?

How about a 1200 vs 1200 or 600 vs 600 video?

Tele !

In that clip, the Strat by far. BUT it's not a good test.

What’s up with the amp?

Why would you pick the "friends" theme for a sound comparison?

Stratocaster sounds brighter and clearer the tele sounds dark and musdy

SO NO ONE TOLD YOU LIFE WAS GONNA BE THIS WAYYY 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

“Friends don’t let friends get friends haircuts.”

It's funny because when I VERY FIRST started learning guitar for some just RANDOM ASS REASON I LOOKED UP TABS TO the friends theme song. I was messing around with the Geeta later with my buddy who's a real good player and rocks out and I was playing it and he just goes "Dude...Is that the fukin friends theme song? I was like yea.... And he looked at me like a disappointed father. Now to see this guy play it is just so funny to me

I was shocked how different strats sound from teles. Just got my first strat..I've always played teles. I like them both but I use so many effects you can't really tell anyway.

Let's try to caster always sounds better than the telecaster🎉

That was “friends” main song?

I've played a lot of guitars in my 20 years of playing and nothing is more versatile than a strat. It's only to heavy metal stuff I'll bring out my Jackson made in Japan

Strat sounds clear and strong. Tele sounds clear with less volume. Funny I should read this because: I adjusted the geriatric bridge pickup on my player tele today and it's 4/64Bass 3/64 treble and it's humbled by the neck pickup clarity and volume. The bridge pu is just weaker. My Stratocaster is A 1996 Squier protone and it feel better than the fender tele

I own a Strat since it's more my style, but both are good

What tastes better an apple or an orange?

sound on the strat sounds a lot fuller, both are cool tho

I only have two guitars one is tele around 1000 pounds and strat around 1800… But the tele is cheaper but i think it sounds better to me i love clean sounds but it also works for other genre

Tele sounded subdued or was it the recording.

I still like both, but personally I prefer the Stratocaster

Compare the neck pickup and u wont even have to ask

Name of the song?

Song?

Not to be negative, but this demo doesn't compare them well at all. Only one position used, weird distortion, and terrible room reverberation. Not to mention the Telecaster model used here is half the price of the Strat model he's comparing it to. When I compare a Strat & a Tele from the same tier & similar era, the Telecasters tend to have a greater mid-range presence & wider frequency spectrum while the Strat has a sharper attack & slightly less sustain. Both are superb instruments

song?

last time i checked the prices were the other way around tho

Clicked away as soon as you played that riff

Most times, it's not about the guitar itself. It's about the Amp and its settings. 😊

Is a telecaster really half the price than a strat?

Powderr - Anywhere I Go 🎶

It's hard to say. Are apples better than oranges?

Oh so strat for rock and Tele for country.? Is Tele and tulip the same thing I just got into the game and am lost

Depends what way it is amped.

That F.R.I.E.N.D.S theme tho (is it?)

Please tell me how you got a real tele for 600

I'll tell you what though I'd never get either with that finish on the neck

Telecaster sounds like a country guitar while stratocaster is like a blues tone

In my country a fender strat and tele vintage reissue costs almost the same

I'd say the tele because the tone was not as shrill as the strat. Although the tone was dialed back a little far on tele for me and just the opposite on the strat.

Tele bridge pickup should sound much brighter

I like sound solid guitars, SG and Tele))) it’s cool 😎 sound!

From what I hear, the Strat but I need to play it to know

In dem Fall die strat!! Welcher Song ist das?

Strat sounds better. Cleaner and more prestine higher end.

It depends on the genre *!IN MY OPINION!* Tele would be good for stuff like Jazz, Pop etc.. Strat would be better for Punk, Rock, Metal and Death Metal.

The Stratocaster will always be the king of guitars and yes I own Les Pauls too.

For this lick , that strat Def sounds brighter and just all around better. But it's not always the case. I've heard both makes before that absolutely slayed. A Tele tends to be more twangy and muffled in my opinion. I always preferred Fenders period because of their feel. Ease of playing. A maple neck and fretboard is so much smoother than rosewood. I know that doesn't tend to be a popular opinion I've heard, and I do prefer the sound of a Gibson or anything with humbuckers as opposed to single coil pick ups. Lol, I guess really if I could get a les Paul body with a maple strat neck that would be my perfect guitar. Gonna have to make that happen someday. ☺

Maybe the sound of the Strat is better, but the Telecaster looks so much cooler. I’ve got a Telecaster myself and I believe I play much better on that guitar than I would have done on a Strat. This because it is important to like the guitar you are playing. It will give the player that little, but important feeling, we all need to play well

Life was going to be this way 🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶

Audibly I like both. Aesthetically I’m a Tele man.

Sounds like the the telecaster has some tone rolled off or maybe a little more compression

I actually just got a $1400 telecaster for free, excited to start

Please remind me what this songs called 😭 I can’t believe I forgot

They are both great but the strat in My humble opinión sounds better. 🎸🎶

I like using teles for avant/art rock music cuz of its raw sound. I also use it for political/surf punk cuz it picks up distortion better than most guitars on the market

the amp settings do the strat so dirty bro 💀
