Gibson? or Fender?

I love SRV, but to me the term shredding, at least around these parts, referred more to a metal style of guitar, or the type of solos Van Halen played........... wasn't dissing Stevie, he's one of my alltime favs. Played a Les Paul until the late 80's, then switched to a Strat ................. now I can't play a Gibson because the necks are so different and I'm used to the Fender .................. prefer a maple neck. I'm playing a Tele now, hotrodded with better pick-ups.
