static noise issue

thanks heaps again. i will be getting stuck into it tomorrow and fingers crossed this sorts it out

Brokin, make sure the main ground to the back of the volume pot hasn't come loose from the pot. Also as Simon suggested check continuity of all the grounds back to the jack. In case the ground wire has come loose from the bridge post bush.
To me it sounds more of a grounding issue than shielding if the static noise has got worse suddenly.

thanks again. i think its ok now. i have checked all the earths they are between .2 to .4. so i think that is fine. i have earthed the pickguard and insulation around the pots and Jack. o havent done the pickups. but so far i feel it was ok.

so there is less noise now Brokin on a distorted channel ?

yeah there is less noise now i am happy with it. i rewired everything again. and truth be told i put some push pull 500k pots and just did the split coils. not having the shielding earthed out and the extra wiring i think thats what caused it. i want to say thank you to Simon and Wokkaboy for all you help again. there is alway something i didnt know that can improove my guitar. all this knowledge will make me a better builder of my next guitar. (which im still undecided)
thank you once again

good stuff Brokin, you have really advance on the electronic side if you installed push pull pots that easily.
It's why this is one of the best kit guitar forums around, we all help and encourage each other

thanks wokkaboy. yeah i like to challenge myself. i enjoyed the push pull pots and now they are setup as splits. but in the near future i have to try the partial phasing of the pickups as they say it sounds better than single split. just got to get some caps and then i can give it a go
