Guitar building templates - 1950's Telecaster router templates with vintage router hump in cutaway.  See my other auctions for standard 50s/60s tele with no router hump for doing bound tops like the early Telecaster and Esquire Customs.  Templates are 1/2" thick MDF produced via CNC machine.  These templates were produced by 3D modeling an actual guitar and not from plans found on the internet.  We don't sell templates that we have not modeled and built ourselves.  Our neck pockets fit standard Fender and aftermarket necks perfectly with a nice tight fit... ... which is exactly what you want for optimal vibration and tone transfer to the body of your finished guitar!  Our templates include center lines on the body and neck templates.  Nut and fret location are also clearly marked, as well as drill locations for the wire and output jack.  An added bonus that we include are back profile templates for shaping your neck  (1st and 12th fret).  These profile templates produce a vintage "soft V" neck shape.
