Anyone able to do me a bit of routing?

lamf68

I've just bought a mustang body, and before I start painting it I was hoping someone here would be able to route out the bridge position to house a humbucker like the Cobain model mustangs for me. No idea what it would involve as ive never pissed about with a router before, so if anyone is able to do the job for me let me know and how much it'll set me back and I'll get it winging off to you.

I can help if you want, it is only a small job though so to save postage i would look locally.

 although  whoever does it I would recommend getting a HS guard sorted first to ensure the route is positioned correctly

Cheers Richard....Finding it a little excessive at £47.95 for a pearloid guard and £55.95 for a Torty one...in fact it's daylight robbery to me.
