Hey guys. Is the rout on a Tele big enough stock to fit a full-size humbucker in the bridge position?
I just got a hand-me-down Gotoh humbucker bridge for free, so I'm thinking it might be worth picking up a Pearly gates for the bridge position if nothing else needs modifying to accommodate the humbucker.

You'll probably need to do a bit of material removal as the standard route is a funny pushed-over-diamond-thingy shape. See pic below...

Thanks mhainz. I don't think I'm going to do any routing on the body. I already have guitars with humbuckers so it's not that important to me.
