Hi James:

Do you mean a tooling pattern or a cut out pattern?

Sorry Gunter, I do not have this pattern. I wouldn't do that to my tele.... but I do have a bass that could use this treatment.

I would gut the guitar and take neck off (if it isn't a neck-through one) .... then use the body as a template tracing the shape on a piece of card stock. But that is me. I do things without patterns. (And I have a hubby that can remove all the "guts" of the guitar and put them back correctly)

That said I google searched "Telecaster pattern" and found this PDF http://terrydownsmusic.com/Archive/tele_body_drawing_revD.pdf

TT. I'm a firm believer in "Ask and you shall receive." Contact one of the artisans who do these leather covered teles and ask if you could "please, get a copy or rendering of one of their tooling patterns. Or if that isn't ok, could you please direct me where I might find one." If find that having the courage to ask is half the battle. I mean.... all they can do is say "No" or just ignore you, Right?
