Cloud-Style Guitar Cavity Recess Routing Template

The Cloud cavity recess template makes it possible to create clean, precise recesses for electronics cavities and pickup housings. This MDF model provides a stable, even surface. Its rectangular 200×150 mm format ensures solid support for the router base. The tool offers effective control during routing and reduces the risk of tipping.

Each template accurately follows the shape of an electronics cover or pickup plate. Its geometry respects the dimensions needed to obtain a clean recess. Thanks to this design, the Cloud cavity recess template produces a consistent inset around each cavity. Results remain uniform, repeatable and suited to current lutherie requirements. The Cloud name is also used for body templates, helping maintain consistency across the range.

This MDF part has sufficient rigidity for everyday use. The material machines well and produces a regular edge during routing. The tool works with a router fitted with a guide bushing or a bearing-guided bit. The template's flat surface improves machining consistency and simplifies guidance.

This product naturally complements the other models available in the guitar templates  category.

Normal variations may occur as a result of cutting MDF. This product is not an official plan but a practical tool intended to produce a precise recess around each cavity. Once used or modified, it cannot be returned or exchanged.

This template is designed to visually resemble a well-known historical model. It is neither an official reproduction nor a product associated with any brand or artist. Shapes may differ and no dimensions are guaranteed. The only guarantee concerns internal compatibility between the templates in the set. This ensures a consistent collection without claiming an exact match to the original model.
