I'll take a stab at it...I've only ever seen one up close at a friends house a long time ago. Didn't even touch it.
From what I remember it looked like a cove that went from the top cutaway and all the way around the edge and then stopped on the corner of the lower bout. No carve on the bottom edge. And then there was a small cove routing in the lower cutaway, but just on the inside from the neck pocket to about 2-3 inches from the top of the horn. I hope this makes sense....
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. :?:

Hay Jason, that looks just about right. The horn on the strat is just a shade longer than the mosrite. Thanks for taking the time to post the pic. Good luck in the new job. Al
