what tools do you have? If you have a router the best way to do it is with a laminate trim/pattern following bit and a router. Otherwise you can open it up with a dremel or scroll saw and then clean up the edges with files.

I was worried about a router/dremel melting the plastic as opposed to cutting it.

I assume this is for a strat?

Why not just get one from Warmouth or fender.....

Not if the bit is sharp.
