I am considering routing a Les Paul style guitar, to add a middle position singlecoil pickup. The guitar is a flat top, not an arch top. The guitar DOES already have a (poly) finish on it.
[EDIT: This is the same guitar I am planning to install a vinyl skin on, discussed here:

I'm thinking the time to add a route - if i do it at all - is now, b4 skin inatallatiion. So, the skin gives me the extra leeway of being able to cover up any blemishes to the finish that rssult from my DIY routing work.]
I don't own a router or drill press type tool but I do own a Dremel, electric drill and other basic hand tools. Will i definitely need a specific tool that I don't already own?
Also, is this template from StewMac the way to go?
