Members Sylvia Posted April 12, 2012 Members Report Posted April 12, 2012 Hi James: Do you mean a tooling pattern or a cut out pattern? Quote
Members gunter Posted April 16, 2012 Members Report Posted April 16, 2012 sylvia, you got this pattern???? cheers, gunter Quote
Members Sylvia Posted April 17, 2012 Members Report Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) sylvia, you got this pattern???? cheers, gunter 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 Edited April 17, 2012 by Sylvia Quote

Members Sylvia Posted April 17, 2012 Members Report Posted April 17, 2012 I am looking for the tooling pattern! but that will help! 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?
