The plate is an interesting idea, but getting the shape right on a Tele style head will be hard..
Heres a Strat example.
You both have terrible taste, the teisco is a work of art (I used to own the bass version)
Anyway, it was the concept I was referring too, not the actual style
That does look hideous, but many makers use an inset plate on a headstock which is a similar idea, and it can work well with fender shapes. I quite like the trussart solution but it doesn't quite work near the headstock curve. I think it would work better with a bit of the teisco shape at the nut end. I like the teisco version because it doesn't follow the headstock shape

Doesn't look too bad:
I need to do some daylight shots tomorrow to show off that proper Surf Green goodness..
And then, it's pick guard time. Will be much fun. Once I have a spare, it's time to decoupage!
How does it sound, you say?
Thumpy. Really really thumpy. Like, more thump than I've heard before. It's very different to a split-coil P, and quite unique. But I like it. Yes, I like it.
Your life will improve when you realise it’s better to be alone than chase people who do not really care about you. Saying YES to happiness means learning to say NO to things and people that stress you out.

Superb job
Agree 100%. Knowing when to put the brush away is the mark of a great painter...

I'll leave it as it is for now. It's satisfyingly 60's enough for now!
Here's a daylight shot to round it off:
