Description
A Telecaster (tm) style guitar seemed to be a pretty straightforward project that could be done in a weekend. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a good 3D or 2D model of a basic design without paying a significant fee so I have begun coming up with a design that can be built on a small DIY CNC router. Guitar DXF – Fender Telecaster (’72 Deluxe) $ 10.00 – $ 20.00. Guitar DXF – Washburn A5. Custom Template Drawing $ 150.00.

Note about the Telecaster Neck:
The neck side view shows the transition to the headstock and heel. Due to all the neck sizes available in the guitar market today, we know you will want to customize the neck for your personal preference and hand comfort.
For this reason, we don’t include the radius for the neck because this is typically something people like to customize to their own preference. Minecraft map editor. To help you decide which radius will best fit your needs, we suggest you check out these pages on http://www.warmoth.com.
