i like teles, but strats with hums in the bridge are hard to beat for sheer versatility.
strats can be whiny as hell in the bridge single coil, swap that for a humbucker and a coil tap and bam! workhorse.

i have teles for tele work, LP's for grind and punch. strats can cover most anything. i mainly play ibanez shred axes, but have specialized axes for specific tones. archtops, lipstick pickup equipped axes for dano tones, etc.

i definitely agree with replacing the 250k with 500k. i do this on all of mine. gets the quack and punch of single coils to pop out more from fenders.
