If you take the entire profile of the guitar down to meet the extra radius you put on there, then trace where you are, and profile the
add-on piece, it should match very closely, no? Then, use a 60s Tele
template to re-profile the body? That's where I thought you might go with this project. Which is why I thought some shops who build guitars might be able to make "quick" work of something like this, since they have those templates to cut blanks, which would be the secondary part of he job. Then, of course, the edge radius.
