Transparent Acrylic template to rout a cavity in a guitar body to fit a standard humbucking pickup - Thickness: 3/8" (9.53mm) - Outer dimension: 149.2mm x 98.4 - Clear Acrylic - Laser-cut for smooth edged precision - Laser etched centrelines and depth measurements - Countersunk holes for anchoring the template with flathead screws These high quality templates are made from thick 3/8" Acrylic with smooth laser-cut edges. They make perfectly shaped cavities and correct depth measurements are etched right on the template. Accurate template placement is easy - the crystal clear Acrylic allows you to see the guitar body or pickguard underneath. Simply align the template's laser etched centrelines with the markings on your guitar to get placement right every time.
The templates work best when used with a router and one of our Ball Bearing Router Bits. Align the template's centrelines with those you drew on your guitar. All you need is Double-sided Tape to keep the template in place. Optional: use flat head screws dropped into the counter-sunk holes - the router glides right over them.

Lower your Ball-bearing Router Bit into the wood and make several shallow passes until the bearing rides smoothly along the template edge. When the bearing can ride against the cavity wall, remove the template so you can rout to the recommended depth engraved on the template.
