I ordered a cool tremolo unit, made in Interlaken, NY and routed some test fixtures based off their schematics. Funny how the company's own templates are completely wrong. If I were to put this unit in according to their information the tremelo would be off-centered and unacceptable. So in order to remedy this correct fixtures have to be manufactured. This is a slow process, lots of trial and error. After about 7 hours and lots of MDF (the brown board you see in the picture) I just about have it. Once the final routing fixture is made I can route the cavities which will accept the tremelo unit. Then I will send the Company my template so this won't happen to other builders.
