Another Tele guy and owning just one is fine.

Tele
Funny thing is I have 10 guitars and not one of them is a Tele.

There's a 1947 D'Angelico Tenor Guitar on Reverb.com for $13,000.00 I'd love to own... or at least play once... ok, a few times!

I kinda believe that underneath the surface, all electric guitars are Tele's. Some just look and play more like Tele's than others.

A nice es300 or es350 ... Old skool
No I don't own one (yet)

I could live happily with an L-4CES till the end of my playing days.

Telecaster, without any second thoughts. This is the tool that etched what a guitar sounds like into the subconscious of the world through records, tv, and film.

I dropped a Tele once, in my driveway. Repairs cost almost four hundred bucks.

Godin Multiac Nylon 7-string. Gotta have 7, and the Multiac's pickup system allows just about any sound, from classical/flamenco to L5/Tele, along with a synth pickup built-in.

Can you have second thoughts? I actually think I might go with the original Music Man Steve Morse model. Pretty much all the sounds you can ask for in one guitar

One of my L-4's, but most likely the 1952 acoustic. Some of the others would be hard to give up including my Tele.
Thanks John

Tele - nothing else comes close

My 2009 Squier Tele Standard (that stopped being "Standard" quite some time ago):

Is that a Seymour Duncan Lil' 59? Great pickup! I ran one in my '66 Telecaster Custom for quite awhile. It's now awaiting transplant to a T-type that I am tinkering with. It's the perfect companion to a neck HB in a Tele, IMHO.

With the tone rolled back it can be quite jazzy in a Bill Frisell kind of way. I wouldn't hesitate to use one again.

Not a pickup that gets much respect, and I had every intention of replacing it at some point, but I confess that it's starting to grow on me. Perhaps due to the fact that it's a ceramic like the Little 59. Anyway, we'll see.
