I'm relatively new to electric guitar and have a Tagima telecaster clone (T55pwh). I love it - it has no business being as good as it is for as cheap as it is.

One thing about telecasters that you mentioned that is probably not the best design is the 3 barrel string saddles that make intonation challenging (since you can't adjust the intonation of one string without changing another one too). My favorite telecaster player Tim Lerch has a video explaining the way he sets up his teles, and one of the things he does is change to compensated saddles.[1] [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5l54uQzKjk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5l54uQzKjk
