Alright, thank you. What are the main differences in the strat sound? Would a hollow body tele be more twangy than a solid body?

I am either doing a Telecaster project or a Strat project sometime in the near future. I was looking at bodies at Warmoth and saw that they had hollow bodies for strats and telecasters. What are the main differences between the two bodies soundwise? I want that vintage strat/telecaster sound, would I still get that out of a hollow body? The same applies for hollow telecaster bodies. Do they sound completely different?
I think I will be getting the strat with some lace sensor pickups, but I'm not sure about the telecaster. Maybe some Seymour Duncans... Sorry if this is an ignorant question, but I wanted to know for future reference. Thanks.

I can still get the same pickups if its a hollowbody right? If not then I will probably go with a solid body. The type of music I play is kind of versatile, I will have a Godin LG Signature for most of the stuff I will be playing which may be upgraded to a Les Paul if I feel like there is a huge difference and have some extra cash. I want a Strat/Tele to get a nice bluesy tone such as SRV's, which I am not looking to duplicate. That would be almost impossible. I want a vintage strat sound, and I have heard you won't get that with a hollowbodied strat. As far as Teles go, I've heard that thinline Teles won't even give you the general idea of the tonal qualities of a hollowbodied strat.
