If you get the opportunity buy an old MIJ 50's style Telcaster. Great guitar! I recently bought an Ibanez from Amazon and was kind of disappointed for the money..but I made it play the way I wanted to. A little bit of knowledge and creativity goes a long ways in how you want something to work. But, for the young players out there, there are a lot of good options available to you that were never available to me at a young age. I'm no pro at anything, just offering my opinion.
You have to know that Tele's and Gibson guitars have a different scale length. Fender has a 25.5" scale and Gibson has a 24.75" inch scale. Unfinished necks are awesome, finish creates a sticky surface. If you like a smaller profile neck..try a Gibson SG, or a Wolfgang EVH..the necks on those are nice. It's all personal preference, and just you being you playing what you 'feel'. Push the idea out there that it's just a piece of "Wood and Wire" and if it inspires you..Play it!! Necks can be adjusted with a truss rod, as long as it works. Adjustments you can do yourself..save yourself some money! I own a few guitars and each one is unique in it's own design. But a guitar is just a tool for creativity, like a paintbrush, you only get something out of that tool when you put something into it. We all have our preferences, ego's , and what not to think about. At the end of the day though..I think Love matters more than that. You do you!
Get a reverse headstock, if you replace the neck. Reverse headstocks are badass!
I don't know much about guitars. But, I KNOW what good guitar playing sounds like & you make your Telecaster ROCK.
poplar has multi directional grain , its extremely stable so rarely warps and is tough , it was used for piano frames and match sticks
