None.

You have to buy a Tele.

A Tele is a Tele, a Strat is a Strat.

Respect them for what they are; both are great guitars, but totally different from each other. If I want an SG tone from a Les Paul, I buy an SG, nuff said.

Normally on the forum we try to be a bit constructive. I agree that a Tele is a Tele etc but the neck tones are not a million miles apart and whilst you wont get it exact, you could get close. I would say a low output set would get you reasonably close-say Country Boy perhaps.

In my humble opinion, a lot of that sound is in the pickups.  So you should be able to get something close.  I don't have enough experience with bareknuckle to make a recommendation however.
