A friend of mine (who I was in a band with for 5 years and still gig with occasionally) uses a bitsa Telecaster that is one of the best Teles I've ever heard. A while ago he bought a Mexican Tele just because he wanted another guitar but has always considered it very inferior in tone to his main Tele. I've been on at him for ages to look at BKs and he finally took the plunge and got a Blackguard 52 bridge pickup last week. He's just been on the phone to me RAVING about how great his Mex Tele sounds with the BK. He played a gig on Saturday and for the first time since he's had his old Tele he didn't get it out of the case. Always satisfying to show someone the true path of tone.
