Telecaster > Stratocaster IMO.
As far as amps:
Fender Twin Reverb
Fender Bassman (vintage blackfaces are the best- with a 2x12, incredibly hot)
Fender Deluxe Reverb
Fender Vibrolux (twins and bassmen are louder, but Vibroluxes are awesome)
As for pedals: you can't go wrong with a good fuzz and delay. A little big muff pi and a deluxe memory man would do you well. You can always get a bunch of behringers, danelectros, and arions. They are all pretty cheap between 15 and 50 each (USD that is).
Some other guitars I'd recommend:
Epiphone Casinos- they are very awesome
Various Les Paul copies- try them out first. You can find some real gems.
Now Personally- if I had no gear worth gigging with and had 2k pounds which is almost roughly 4k USD- I'd spend 1200 on a 1960's Fender Blackface Bassman + cab, 1k on a Fender Jazzmaster, 60 on a little big muff, 200 on a moog ring mod, 300 on a moog freqbox, 200 on a polyphase, 40 on an expression pedal, 300 on a moog control processer, 100 on a CV sequencer, 120 on an EHX clone theory, 200 on an ehx deluxe memory man, 250 on an EHX POG, and the rest on cables and kits from

Man, that would be a nice set up.
