I own a 72 Telecaster Deluxe RI - (Click Here), which I love, but I've been playing a lot of shows lately and I'm realizing it's a pretty heavy guitar. A friend recommended that I sell the Deluxe and try one of the 72' Thinline RI (Click Here), which would be weigh less. I've never played one of the thinlines. Can anyone tell me how different the these two guitar would sound? Does the F-hole make a big difference? Are the pickups the same in both guitars? What about the neck, is there a huge difference between playing with the Strat neck and the Tele neck?

Thanks alot for the help.
