Well, I went ahead and did the deed using a 1/8 inch dowel (it was 50 cents for a long one). The dowel was a nice tight fit in the holes. Now all I have to do is wait for the glue to dry, sand the dowel ends (carefully as to not scratch the guitar body) and use a friend's drill press to redrill the holes. Hopefully this better alignment will improve the guitar's playability. Thanks for your advice

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. since the hole is really small, I may just use several toothpicks together instead of a dowel.

Hello, I have a Mexican Telecaster that is great, except for one major assembly mistake.. The bridge is over to the left a bit too far, resulting in the strings being off-centre.. it is still very playable, but I want to fix it. Fixing would involve moving the holes over slightly to the right, and overlapping the old ones. (Similar to another post, I know, but different guitar area) Question is, would wood glue mixed with sawdust be adequate to fill in the old holes and allow for new holes drilled overlapping the old ones? Oh yeah, the body of the guitar is poplar. Thanks!
