    thanks for the help, I think with this info I will help me out. The fret thing from stew mac is pretty cool

    Yeah when I was looking at the bridge I was suprised at how much travel the saddles have. I am used to messing with tune-o-matics, this is my first fender style build. My initial look at the bridge after laying it on the body was that if I basically get it in the ballpark it should intonate. that being said though I am still shooting for getting it it in the right spot.

    my initial plan was to center the saddles so I knew they had room to travel to allow to intonate, line those up on the scale length line (or should I use the string length line?) then mark the the pickup spot then center my template around the initial pickup outline. does that sound like it would work out? should I adjust the saddles differently first?

    oh yeah, the bridge is a standard allparts/gotoh three saddle tele bridge

    I am building a tele and have the neck pocket routed and scale length marked but I am not sure where to place my bridge pickup template in relation to the scale length or string length (1/16 back from the scale length) The template I have has the bridge pickup cavity and string holes layed out on it. I have searched around the forums but have not really found anything so I figured I would make a post about it. If anyone could help me out that would be great.
