Hmmm, slightly different contour so I'm not sure the LP jack plate would fit on a Tele. I'll look through my pics though and see if can spot it...

LP jack plates fit on a Tele, and it is a common mod, as the cup sockets on old Tele's tend to come loose after heavy use.

I have yet to see a LP jack plate on any of Keith's Teles.
certainly not on Micawber and Malcolm.

they do fit though. I have it on one of my Tele's.

From memory, I'd say Keith's Telecaster Custom has one.

I put one on mine years ago. The originals tend to pop out with wear. A rare weakness in the Fender design.

They do work fine but they leave four nasty screwholes visible if you ever wanted to revert your Tele to the original look.

I'd prefer an electrosocket. they're built like a tank and fit like a bomb.

Yes indeed. that's about the only thing Leo didn't get right.
