Rob, I got one of these from US ebay, apparently its like the one fitted to Jim Campilongos signature telcaster. Its fitted to my esquire and is basically a Fender plate with part of the edges ground off. Works fine, but I can't honestly say I 'use' the extra cutaway part for picking a la Campilongo really! I've got another stock tele plate that I drilled for strings along the back panel to try out the sound without the 'through-body' stringing. It worked but I prefer the stock job, -Leo got it right first time IMO!
Doh! Forgot to include the photo but I think you get the idea.
Campilongo and all the other cool kids use toploaders.
Heres's one I found in my junkbox, with chromed steel saddles, but one could just as easily use brass, titanium or unobtanium.
Notice anything missing?

Positively dying with envy right now, Deaconmark...That is a beauty. I have been looking for an acoustic Super 400CES for years now. Closest one I came to acquiring was a 200X ASB from Gary Dick's...
You and me both.
Did you get your 2009 L-4CES ASB with the one neck pickup from Spruce Tree Music? I have a 2000 L-4CES ASB that I got from Rudy's, and a 2010 L-4CESN with one neck pickup that I...
It seems in all that typing you forgot that there are only 7 ordinal numbers that are relevant in this context, so as a matter of fact we’ve got fingers to spare!
