Totally agree all demo vids of guitars and amps are all distortion driven rarely hear the Clean sound!

I think the original Telecasters (Broadcasters?) had pine bodies. Like Dave I had the Squier Classic Vibe Tele with the pine body but unlike Dave I sold it on as I was downsizing. Wish I'd kept it now :(
