I have a light ash body Tele with maple neck. I have a set of Joe Barden pickups in it and the guitar is very versatile. Danny Gatton got some great jazz tones out of his Tele with Bardens. Then there's Ed Bicket and who can forget Ted Greene. Bicket had a humbucker in the neck position and one of Greene's guitars it looks like he has 3-P-90s. Sounds great whatever he used.

Guitar tele's R finger-lickin' good

I am partial to using teles for jazz from the standpoint of playing style and their sonic capabilities. I've been a fingerstyle chord-melody player for years and the tele has been the best match for what I do. Plenty of balance, articulation and the genius of simplicity ( two knobs-one switch ) yet capable of infinite sonic colorations. Also built for the trenches!
