Can someone recommend a good place online or otherwise to get one? Wanting to shape my guitar after the rough cut. Looking for something about 2 1/4" - 2 3/4" long. |

I think you might have a tough time finding a 2.75" cutting depth in a standard bit; you can always ride the bearing on the cut surface and work your way to the total cut depth you need. I've got one of these (#45362) and it's a good, smooth cutting bit. The shear cut is a big plus. http://www.toolstoday.com/p-5762-down-shear-face-plunge-template-router-bits-with-upper-ball-bearing.aspx?variantids=9135,0 Cheers John |

Thanks for that! Anyone have any suggestions for a good bit to rout out the tremelo, pickup cavities, control cavities and neck? Also, what is a good one to round the edges of the body? |
