I am very interested in ordering a Telecaster Deluxe-style body from Warmoth
and I have a question regarding specific build options.
As you are aware, the Telecaster Deluxe routing is designed for Wide Range Humbucker pickups.
Since these pickups are larger than standard humbuckers,
I understand that this may impose certain limitations on the body design.
Would it be possible to use a 22-fret neck with a Stratocaster(rounded)-style fingerboard extension(overhanged)?
To my knowledge, vintage-style 72' Telecaster Deluxe models (with Wide Range Humbuckers) typically feature 21 frets. (rounded fingerboard at neck heel)

On the other side Some modern Telecaster Deluxe models(like professional II) use 22 frets with standard humbuckers,
but they retain a Telecaster-style heel and neck pocket.

I would prefer to use a 22-fret neck with a Strat-style rounded fingerboard extension, if compatible.
I would greatly appreciate your guidance on whether these specifications can be accommodated.
Thank you very much for your time and advices.
