How it started...

The Guitar Stencil Project started out as a way to kill some time one evening.  I needed an easy way to lay out guitar wiring diagrams.  I had Microsoft Visio, but didn't have any of the Visio shapes that represented guitar electronic components...so...I started creating a potentiometer.  It was easier than I thought, so I continued to make other components and then moved onto pickups.  After a while, I figured others could use this so I posted the files on a forum in the Telecaster Discussion website.  Readers started providing feedback and it started to grow.  To make things easier and more manageable, I decided to create this website to host files, provide information on the stencils and to gather feedback for new shapes.

A special thank you goes out to the TDPRI members Garret, Steve Tucker and Steve Sorenson for shape contributions, information, useability feedback, etc...  Thanks guys!
