    Decide what pups you want and get a PDF template online OZ, couple with a couple of Forstner bits to hog out and a cheap palm router, bingo, Bob’s your gender unspecified relative

    Yeah it seems that is a common issue at present, KuanJB and I were commiserating that very thing earlier this afternoon. So many builds....so little time!

    On the plus side, I can attest the whenever I take this out I get comments. Tele shaped basses just look super cool and they are pretty rare.

    The (literal) down side you can sort of make out in the pic. The strap it's not attached to the upper bout, but rather to a strap extender. Before I added that even with aluminum Schaller tuning machines, and a relatively small headstock there was still some neck dive. Balances nice now that I have the extender on...Click image for larger version.
