Rear Routed Tele - will LP controls fit?

[swarfrat]

I've seen some stuff indicating it might be a tight fit - but, will four pots (LP style) fit in a rear routed tele (carved top hollow if it matters)  control cavity?

Probably.  LP controls barely fit in a LP routing.

For an upcharge, you can get LP style rear control routing on a Tele: http://www.unofficialwarmoth.com/index.php?topic=1375.60

Don't think this is on the Builder, you would need to custom order via phone or email.

When are you going to finish that one?

order the large rear route

This large rear rout cavity provides plenty of room for controls, electronics and batteries. Choose only the holes you want. We can omit the ones you don't want. Control cavity cover with screws included.

Would Warmoth do the LP control layout if you ordered the upper toggle option on a carved top Tele (no F-holes in lower section of body, hollow or solid doesn't matter)? If so, I'm warming to a Plan "C" or "D" option in a project....... :icon_scratch:

I would say yes it will.  The half-round rear route is the same that W does on the SG, and it fits 4 pots, a 3-way toggle, and an output jack.

Do I hear you right, that if I talk to a real person, they'll drill it for LP controls too?

+1. That's my question too. But on Carved top Teles....

My question was about Carved Top Tele's. So unless someone misunderstood...  arty07:

I've seen plenty of showcase CT Teles with LP control layout, toggle switch and all.
