I understand where this impression comes from - it was the Shadows' first album cover from 1961. In fact, in the studio Bruce usually played the rhythm part on acoustic, but for that photoshoot he was holding a Telecaster that had been borrowed from a shop just for the occasion. Indeed, if you look closely at the picture you can see the price-tag still attached to the strap-button. As far as I know he didn't usually use a Tele on stage and contemporary photos in his autobiography depict him and Hank both playing Strats.
