I just got a telecaster-type body with a rear route. I drilled the holes for the pots, and when i tried to put them in, they wouldnt go all the way through. This is because there is too much wood between the top and back. How would you suggest wearing down the wood in the route to decrease the width? Thanks

Re: Telecaster dilemma
You don't have to remove any wood. Get yourself a set of "long shaft" pots.

Long shaft pots are far easier and cheaper than a router.-Chris

Re: Telecaster dilemma
Yep you just need the right pots. Look for long shaft or long bushings (as some places will label it) or more simply pots that are meant for a Gibson or so on."If anyone at my funeral has a long face, I'll never speak to him again." ~ Stan LaurelComment
