Yeah I agree, have a go at a burst. Worst case scenario you end up doing a solid colour.
It's funny, but sometimes these challenges turn into the best part of a kit build.

A burst would look great.
That tele looks fantastic and exactly the kind of method I had in mind... ok I’m going to give it a shot!

Here’s what I did with the heel, feels much more comfortable than the squared off shape

And the headstock. I wanted a simple shape so used a pint glass as a template

I like that head profile, it seems unusual but nicely understated. It mirrors the opposite end where the body is also a single radius curve.
Your headstock makes me smile knowing the template. Good luck with the burst. Give it a good practice until you are happy with your results.
Very effective headstock on that guitar shape, well done.
Are these a set neck or are you going to do ferrules and screws?
