    Excellent templates. Just what I was expecting. Wish there was a Neck Side Profile Template as well.

    T-Style template: Amazing!

    Posted by David Keeney on 2020 Dec 12th

    I am not an experienced woodworker and definitely not an experienced guitar maker. Potvin Guitars has made the make of a guitar accessible to me. The templates are well constructed, easy to use, and SUPER helpful. Moreover the customer service was amazing. If you have a question, comment, or concerns Mike gets back to you very quickly. I highly recommend his products.

    Beautiful product. I have other templates made of plexiglass. Nice to look at but not great accuracy that you get with Potvin products

    Simply Amazing

    Posted by Roman Wik on 2020 Oct 13th

    Not only are these templates perfect in every way - Neck pocket and neck template fit tight, everything lines up perfectly, etc. - but the service Mike provides is some of the best I've seen. He sent a handwritten message with the package, and is responsive on social media, and from other people I've heard from, he's great to chat with over the phone as well. If you're wondering which templates to go with, and are unsure of who you can trust, believe me as someone who is with you no that, you can trust Mike and his products. Bang on templates, excellence customer service and relations, and a great price to boot. I will definitely be coming to Mike first for my next templates! Bravo Mike!

    Exactly What I Wanted

    Posted by Don on 2020 Aug 17th

    Amazing quality and next day delivery (Im sure its subject to location and availability, but still). A fraction of the price of SM. Will buy from again. Very helpful as well

    Best Tele Templates!!

    Posted by Kyle Carpenter on 2020 Jul 27th

    I’ve used a few different templates now and these are the best in terms of accuracy and fitment of the neck pocket! Love Mike as a business owner too, fast shipment, good communication, and willingness to work on new templates. Buy your templates here, you won’t be disappointed! - KC Electrics

    T-Style Guitar Template

    Posted by Tristan Cormier on 2020 Jun 23rd

    Just started building guitars, it’s frustrating not having a well made template. I don’t have a CNC handy, so I decided to buy some CNC cut templates. They fit together perfect and work awesome when I use my router. Buy them and save yourself the frustration.

    T-Style Template

    Posted by Wes Redmon on 2020 Apr 16th

    This is the 2nd full template set I've ordered from Mike. They are absolutely perfect and take all the guesswork out of your project. He also uses the nice 3/4" MDF which makes routing way easier. (I've seen others elsewhere that use the 1/4"). Mike is officially my go-to guy for templates.

    Very good quality- well made of heavy stock. I have found my source of templates. Easy to deal with and responsive to questions. Thanks
