Copper slug and snail barrier tape is also a replacement for cavity shielding foil, it has the same electrical properties as the bespoke stuff and does take solder

All available at your local hardware, these items are that I use.
Thanks - good tips......
I've actually got an sheet of thicker aluminium foil separating the "top or cap" from the body of the guitar.
After I've put a few more layers of Danish oil on - I' use some copper tape to connect this to the "normal" shielding in the cavities.
