    ES-335 (trini) kit grounding wire issue

    Hey everyone,

    I got overly excited putting hardware into my guitar and hammered in the posts without running a ground wire. Is there a creative solution to fix this or a workaround?

    Any help or advice would be awesome. I did not see a similar thread out there so I think I might be the first person to forget something so obvious. I assume the best solution is to run the ground wire from the pickup cavity and mount a hunk of metal (screw perhaps) into a free space but wanted to ask first.

    Thanks everyone!

    Edit: I should mention I am installing burstbuckers with braided wire. If so, can I skip the ground wire from the post and just solder the braided wire to the top of the top and run the inner wire through the pot terminal? Or do I need to do one or both?
