A Rock n' Roll Tele

Most common plates do, whether football or square. I exclusively get the 7/8" drill.

I found a curved plate that should fit the tele. Maybe it's the Gibson influence, but I like this better than the cup/electrosocket.

The body showed up on Saturday. I checked the fit of the neck and it's perfectly snug in the pocket. I put some copper foil in. Not the best job, but also not bad for my first time.

While I was looking into installing the cup, I learned the hard lesson about Tele jack inputs. I decided to skip that. I have an electrosocket coming, but I was wondering if there is a plate that fits the 7/8s cut?

The football jack plate will work

And as it is a Tele the square jack plate will work also.

Most plates (square/football), footballs are cutting it close but the ones sold by Warmoth will cover just fine.

I got one I think will work, it's cut for LP/Tele guitars. The one from Warmoth doesn't have nickel, unfortunately.
