So what Kind of Tele Harness do I need for a rear Route Warmoth body? I'm in the beginning stages of assembling a Warmoth Tele I purchased off the trader forum here.

I purchased a standard short shaft 250K  3 way Tele harness, only to find  when I just tried to install it just now, that the solid shafts do not make it all the way through the body. A quick search truns up nothing with long shaft pots pre-assembled, and forget me trying to wire one, ain't gonna happen, I can barely get the wires soldered on, if at all.

If I need a custom harness, anyone know where I can get them? I imagine it won't be inexpensive.

thanks.

Try Sigler Music.

Or just try asking any of the people offering pre-wired harnesses if they'll do you one with long-shaft pots?

That's probably the easiest route. Still, I'm not sure buying a pre-built harness is the way to go with a Tele. Barely qualifies to be called a "harness". There's not much to them to begin with, and you'll still have to wire the pickups, output jack and bridge ground into the harness so you still need some soldering skills. Probably better off asking the local music store if they will do it, or they almost certainly know someone who would for a nominal fee.
