Telecaster-playing Pixies frontman and solo performer Frank Black appreciates that it doesn't require extra effects to do its job. He also values its toughness.

"I remember I got in trouble posing in Guitar Player magazine standing on one of my Telecasters like a skateboard," he laughs. "But the fact of the matter is that you can throw a Telecaster off the back of a truck, onto the ground. It might go out of tune, but that's about it."

Haha, I'd love to see the picture of him treating his Telecaster "like a skateboard".
