The Pine Tele is pretty cool especially if you can get some add ons or a price break. Otherwise, for the same price I'd suggest holding out for the new alder, double bound sunburst CV Tele. Either way - get a Tele and not a Strat.

Ha! Tele-ish now inbound.
I would get the Tele over the 60's CV strat.
if it was the 50's CV's i would take it over the pine Tele.

I haven't played the pinecaster but will probably get a new CV Custom tele in burst; however, I was in a music store just recently and they were selling a CV sixties strat for 279 in antique burst and it was an awesome strat. It sounded great and looked great and played great. Plugged it into a Fender Super Champ XD and put them both thru their paces. They both shined.
I would get a sixties CV strat in a second if I wanted one or felt like it, on he spot, if it sounded really super good.
I have been wanting to play a pinecaster for a long time. The stores around here that have had them say that they are very nice guitars for the price, but they don't stock a lot of them. Probably because they like to sell the much more expensive ones like the new American Specials that they have so many of in stock.

The Tele. You've got a whole bunch of Strats, and those Teles are something special. IMO, they play much better than they are priced.
