Telecaster controls - Like em or not?

[Iago]

I would put the tone control a bit closer to the volume pot also..

I still think that a strat's volume pot is easier to put your hands on and make quick changes, but last month I played my friend's strat (the first I play after probably 3 months) and I was hitting my hand on the volume pot all the time. The way my hand now rests on a tele makes it a bit more tricky to play a strat. the bridge pickup, so as the saddles are further away from the neck on the tele.

I guess Fender thinks anyone who can shred faster than the speed of light,
chicken pick behind their heads, palm mute the E-D-B string while bending the other
3 simultaneously shouldn't have any problems dodging the volume knob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
