Shielding

[JoshW_USA]

New shielding question: I am working on a new TLA-1Q and am thinking about the shielding. Since the control cavity is part of one of the hollow-body chambers, it would be very difficult to completely shield. Is it worth getting some shielding paint and trying to coat the whole chamber? Copper tape what I can reach? Or is it not necessary to shield that chamber? This is my first build, so any advice is greatly appreciated.

Most hollow bodies don't bother with shielding, if you are running single coils then you might try and tape the pup cavity and the control plate like on a strat, but you need to create a complete envelope around the electrics to have it do what it should.
You are not going to be able to do that with a Thinline. if noise is a really big problem you might try getting some shielding paint in there, but it may do nothing other than frustrate you during the build.
