Graph Tech Ghost - Manual (Page 24)

Strats have the electronics on a front-mounted plastic pick
guard which is easily removed, drilled, notched, and reinstalled.
The control cavity is also fairly large and can often fit the
ghost® components without routing. The Strat has two tone
controls, and either one is well suited for conversion to a
ghost® volume. Tele controls are also front mounted, but the
cover plate is metal, and the cavity is quite small; consider
adding a 9v battery box* or locating the ghost® boards in a
cavity routed beneath the pick guard or metal bridge plate.

Les Paul-style guitars have rear-mounted controls with a
cover-plate, and roomy control cavities. Routing is seldom
required for the Acousti-Phonic. Note that the Les Paul
toggle switch cannot be used as a substitute for the ghost®
QuickSwitch because they make connections differently inside.
Hollow bodies have plenty of room to add the ghost® system, but it
can be difficult to work inside them (you may feel like you’re making
a ship in a bottle!) Few of them have convenient access hatches.
