Probably the easiest thing would be to get a cheap telecaster reproduction body and cut the sides off and make it square.

I could help you with that if you know what you want in one. I can use your drawing or sketch to create a 3D model and export the dxf file to my CNC router. Just let me know. I'd be glad to help.

Warmoth.com all kinds of body cuts including square body "blanks" that are pre routed.
