    In the words of the song....

    “Just because you’re paranoid, don’t mean they’re not after you...”

    Thanks for the tips Simon, I’ve enough shielding left to do some bridging on those points.



    I couldn’t help myself, I had to mock up. Though I have found there are some significant electrical gremlins to over come.

    I don’t have buzz, I don’t have microphonics, in actual fact I have nothing.....nothing at all.....I am, puzzled, to put it mildly.

    I have noted that a lot of the solder joints in the factory pick guard were ugly, like, hated mother in law ugly. There are snipped wire ends still imbedded in the earth connections on the pots and the connectors. Most of them looked almost corroded around the periphery of the solder blobs as well.
    The volume pot looked shot so I have replaced that with a new alpha pot.
    Both the tones were wired with caps to the middle connector, and wired to switch from the left connector. I’ve since re-wired to a standard Strat diagram

    But still no dice on noise...any noise at all. I’m going to back track from the Jack forward and see what else I can proof test.
    I’m really hoping it isn’t the switch.
