This is for the builders. I plan on building a couple of very similar Explorer-type guitars with some nice Limba I scored recently. I absolutely LOVE the look without the pickguards. On the one here, what’s the trick to drilling for the switch position in the lower horn (not the switch itself, that’s easy, but the route for the wiring)? It’s simple if you’re doing a pickguard, As it’s just part of the routing, or if you go with a figured top. But for solid body, I’m a little perplexed. Would you go diagonally from the bridge pickup route? Thanks!
