Hardtail Tele Bridge

[electramone]

I'm thinking of doing an Esquire style w/ backloaded rear rout controls.  I wanted to do just a TV Jones humbucker in the bridge position mounted right into the wood so no traditional Tele bridge.  I'm assuming I would just need a standard strings through back hardtail bridge like the Gotoh Warmoth offers.  Would that work with alignment, spacing, etc?

Thanks for any advice!

As a custom order, you could just use the hardtail strat route like the tele deluxe uses, then humbucker bridge pup route, sure.
Great example: http://www.unofficialwarmoth.com/index.php?topic=8482.0
You could also try out one of these from Glendale to get more telecaster:

I think then you would want the Warmoth humbucker tele bridge route, but check the dimensions to be double sure.

Finally, you could just get the humbucker tele route and humbucker tele bridge, but mount the pup direct to wood instead of the bridge.

This one will fit the Warmoth bodies - vintage tele bridge route:

About the pickup route you'd better ask warmoth, but I guess it would be the P90 or humbucker route
