You've got 12 notes, do what you want with them.

 IMHO , Strats are Nice looking !!! ... Teles are kinda' clunky looking ...
 My new guitar , which is more like an LP has 3 P-90 pups and gives a reasonably good tonal imitation of the strat sound ... Probably more single coils than anything that give a strat that sound  ...

I love a Strat's tone, but I think they are hideous looking guitars. What are the options as far as getting the tone without the looks?

The EHX demo guy has got such a beautiful strat.

But yeah just stick all the strat parts in an alder/ash body.

I used to not like the look of a tele, but they have certainly grown on me

OK, fine. Maybe not hideous but I still don't like the way they look. To me this is sexy:




You DO realize that the only aesthetic difference between those two is a carved top, color, and headstock shape?

....

it's like a guy saying "Man that girl is hot, but I wish she had round hips instead of round thighs, and I wish her head was a bit pointier."

You realize you're quibbling over non-issues, right?
