I've got a FMT HH Telecaster (flame maple top, double humbucker). it is really a Gibson in Fender clothing....tele body shape, but carved top; set neck, but 25 1/2 scale....the sound is very Les Paul/SG, and with the coil splitter, you can get a single coil sound...although it's more like a P90 equipped Gibson than a true telecaster

features and specs from the Fender site:
