musicman humbucker/fender neck pocket routing template?

Sign in to disble this ad
Im planning on routing my bass to fit one of these. anyone know where i can download one,

then i can print if off and transfer it onto a piece of MDF or something(which i will route)

I cant really justify spending money on a acrylic template which im only ever gonna use once

you can get the basics here, but there's a lot of details missing that you'd need to measure off the actual pickup itself

See if any of your local music stores have them as after-market parts. You can trace it and measure it yourself, then go back and make your template.

thanks for the info guys,


what about the neck pocket? Since i already have the neck, can i just draw around the neck, route it out on MDF and use that as a template?
