Torn on the contours. Part of me wants to leave original shape and part wants to do them all. Perhaps "heel contour" as a compromise?
What is the consensus?

PhilHill said:Do what's good for you. When he designed the Strat, the first thing that Leo Fender added due to musicians suggesting it was the contours. I due have a hard time figuring out though, folks who I've heard complain about the Tele's shape over the years never seem to have a problem with spending hours with their arm wrapped around an acoustic. :dontknow:

Unfortunately in the showcase you'll find either all or none contours in Telecasters, if you want a mix you have to custom order.
