The first step in Part 2 of this build was tracing the outline of the guitar body from the template onto the wood. After that, I headed over to the bandsaw to rough cut the body to shape. A Telecaster body is about 12 ¾" wide at its widest point and my Laguna 14 Twelve bandsaw has a max resaw capacity of just under 13", so I needed to trim off as much excess as possible. After removing the excess material from the body, I resawed a ¼" slice off of the top of the body. This would allow me to chamber the inside of the body before gluing the ¼" slice back onto the body.
