23kon,
I play two telecasters, both mexican made, and would not at all pay money for the American made equivalent just to say or feel like I had an American telecaster. The differences between the Standard and American Standard are so minimal, it just wouldn't be worth it.
I also play my first guitar, a 92 Squier Strat that I've had since then.
Acoustics, on there other hand - there's something to be said for spending more for a better guitar. I love Taylors. I'd love to have one but don't at all need one - my Epiphone PR5 suits me just fine, and I've had it since 95.
I'm left handed, BTW, so the guitars I really want are fewer and far between, and one of the reasons I'm hoping to have a custom guitar built within the next year by a guy in Chicago that I know very well and who does incredible work. It will be a cross between a Tele thinline and a Tele Deluxe.
