Which one do you like? Which one is better?
So many great rockers played the Strat that I have a hard time defending the Les Paul. Buddy Holly, Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Clapton off the top of my head. Hendrix and Clapton alone should end the discussion.
However.....
I'll take a Les Paul any day over a strat. The power of the humbucker just kicks the single coils' ass IMO. And you don't have to beat up on a Les Paul to make it rock. Who agrees with me? How about Slash, Jimmy Page, Joe Perry, Zakk Wylde, and almost everyone who's played with the Allman Brothers for starters.
So, for reasons unexplainable, the correct answer is Les Paul. But I'll give you that music is subjective, so some may disagree.
