Big improvement over the standard tele control plate
Leo Fender was a design genius in many ways, but he put the telecaster volume control too close to the selector switch. Everyone and their grandmother has known this since Elvis was a boy, yet Fender and their competitors continue to produce many thousands of telecasters every year with the volume control too close to the switch. Sigh.
Goldo to the rescue! This is the only after-market retro plate I know which has addressed this problem and I strongly recommend it.
They have done two things to improve the design. First they moved the volume control further away from the switch. This simple change in itself is a big improvement.
Second is the slanted switch, so it's easier to change pickups without accidentally hitting the volume.
The only problem with the slanted slot is using a super-switch. These are often cramped in a telecaster anyway and will stick out further when mounted diagonally. I used the Goldo single-layer superswitch which I suspect is not a good as an Oak, but which I knew would fit.
As long as you have a compact single-layer switch, this is a great upgrade for your current telecaster and the obvious choice for any new-build.
