Actually Robbie was a Tele man through most of the Band until about the last year.
When I was a child I spoke as a child, But all I heard was how I should get ahead,
Now growing up it ain't anything but all This indecision with these debts and doubts
And worries hanging over my head. When I was a child I spoke as a child,
I wish I could remember what I said.

Albert Collins was the man. There is footage of him in his last few months having a guitar duelling with Buddy Guy and he cut through Buddy!
Greg Koch is a good current contender.

Re: What about Telecaster greats?
Another who should be mentioned in George Harrison. From the "Get Back" ('Let It Be') sessions on, George played a custom made Rosewood Telecaster. It's heard on both 'Let It Be' and 'Abbey Road', and can be seen in the Beatles' final 'rooftop concert' in the 'Let It Be' film. :

Later Harrison gave the Tele to Delaney Bramlett, who kept it for almost 35 years before putting it up for auction, where it sold for over $430,000 in 2003.

Robbie played Telecaster from '58 to '74. Remember he was influenced by Buchanen even though Robbie saw fame first. Don't beleive it google Robbie Robertson and Telecaster. His solo on Dylan's Ton Thumb Blues with a Telecaster influenced several well known people to start playing the Telecaster.

Jeff Beck is the best guitar player on the planet. If he picks up a tele, he is the best tele player, if he picks up a Les Paul, he is the best les paul player.
