This is why the standard telecaster pick-guard has the extra gap.
On mine the fretboard was 5mm shorter at the high end which also exacerbates the issue.

I had already drilled the string-through holes so re-locating the bridge was out of the question.
I had to cut a custom scratch plate to cover the extra territory.
Since I decided on a different finish, I also re-routed some of the control cavity further back
to compensate for it's forward position.

cheers, Mark.
Ahh ok.

I reckon I’ll have to cut one but I’m not going to do that now, I’ll just arrange it the best possible and leave it. When I do this I’ll probably cut space for a humbucker because I didn’t know there a rout big enough for it so I didn’t get one to begin with.
