Mini-Tele Body Template:
Let's see if I can explain this. I took a Jpeg scan of the Telecaster blueprint found in the Duchossior book. This was before the Terry Downs drawing. I cropped the picture so the cropped image outlined the body. The picture was then resized so the length is 14 1/2 in. I printed this image actual size in two pieces since I can only print 8 1/2 x 11. I taped the two pieces together and glued them to 1/4 in. MDF then cut and sanded to the line................ the neck pocket area was modified to allow for a standard sized neck pocket.

This body will be used with a 22 3/4 scale neck as found on the Squier Mini-Stats. Location of pickup cavities and control plate cavity will be worked out with the neck in the pocket.
