Collins has to be #1..I noticed that a couple-o-folks had the good tatse to list Tab Benoit.Tab is one of my favorite guitar players,His version of These Blues are all Mine,is killer..And the cajun taste to alot of his tunes is fun with the accordian and such..

Check out my list

Hey Sanshrio, that's a great list!:yay
I love all the Tele picks, but also some up and coming telephiles. Check out a young fellow named Jason Jordan(www.jasonjordan.net) Uses a 67' Tele and Super reverb amp. ...
I've heard Jason before. He's got some nice stuff. I like his vibe. It's really nice to that Nashville is growing as far as Tele players go...
Keith Richards with open G tuning!
Sorry, 1st time poster here, but lots of great choices listed here. I'd agree on most, and I've added a couple of people to my list of players to check out.
Whomever said D Boon and Chrissie Hynde--cool--two of my favourites.
I might add:
Roky Erikson
Tom Herman
Daniel Ash

For me, Gatton's the king and the argument's over who comes after the great DG - what a player.
Also: Roy Buchanan, Jessie Edwin Davis, Tom Principato, Jimmy Bryant, James Burton, Don Rich, Amos Garrett, Albert Lee, Roy Nichols, Big Al Anderson, Brent Mason, Nokie Edwards, Will Ray, John Jorgenson, Jerry Donahue, Mike Bloomfield (all the pictures show him with the LP burst but his best stuff's on a Tele), and Pete Anderson.
Hmmm, let's see if I can resurrect this thread. I found a Canadian guy that's really great. His name is Steve Piticco
James Burton, Roy Nichols, Roy Buchanan, Amos Garrett, Cornell Dupree, Louie Shelton, Tommy Tedesco, Alvino Rey, Robbie Robertson, Jesse Ed Davis, Bill Kirchen, Danny Gatton, Mike Bloomfield, Doug Sahm, Bob Bain, Howard Roberts, Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, "Big" Jim Sullivan, Bruce Welch, Albert Collins, George Harrison, Steve Cropper, Albert Lee, Pete Anderson, Robbie MacIntosh, Elliot Easton. Whew!
One name y'all might not know but if you've listened to Lee Roy Parnell, you've heard him:
James Pennebaker. Just a monster and he also plays fiddle, mandolin, pedal steel, lap steel, dobro, the list goes on and on. A monster.
I'm glad someone mentioned Bill Hullett because he's a master.
Lee Roy Parnell mostly used a Tele on his first album so I'll throw him in.
Reggie Young. "Drift Away." Need I say more? Also many years with Waylon.
Popa Chubby uses a Tele at times. Great NYC blues player.
Todd Sharp.
And of course, me. See the avatar? :nelson
You had me goin' until the last line... Then the following thought ungulfed me like a tidal wave:
What a ! :nya :)
