This evening I didn't have much chance to get up to much bit I did manage to create a template for the neck cavity routing. Hopefully this will give me a nice tight fit as the template is snug.
I also sanded the body and applied another coat of sanding sealer to the back and sides. I managed to repeat the process a little later as well and the body is feeling lovely and smooth now. Also I took the shine off the neck and applied another coat of Tru-oil, I managed to repeat this before I packed up for the night.
I did have a quick think about what style pick guard I will put on this body. I am not keen on the Fender Thinline pick guards and I like the idea of a hybrid between a standard Telecaster and a Thinline so I think I will keep the metal plate mounted controls, make a custom scratch guard and modify it to accommodate the short bridge and P90 pickups.
