When beautiful woods are used on a body, it is often desirable to cut the control cavity from the back. This way there is no
need to cover the beautiful wood with a pickguard. This is called "Rear Routing" and it allows maximum exposure of the face wood.
This larger cavity allows very near stock positioning of the 3-way switch and pot holes. Cavity depth is 1-1/2" leaving a
face thickness of 1/4". In the switch area, the thickness is 3/32".
There is no extra charge to have any or all the control holes cut in their standard positions (shown above).
All rear routed bodies are supplied with a recessed cover plate and mounting screws.
