When did the router's hump disappear

blauserk · September 9th, 2005, 11:51 AM

from Tele bodies? I always thought that the hump was an early 1950s phenomenon that no longer appeared on bodies by the late 1950s and early 1960s. Am I wrong about that?

Thanks.

The hump and neck pocket lip lasted together until the mid 50's. But then somebody read the instructions on the router, and promptly killed the lip. The hump soldiered on until 63/64 when it finally died.

How about someone posting pictures of the hump and lip?
