Hey, I noticed that you shielded the jack cavity on your pic from today.
I read before on the forum that you should leave it un-shielded as you risk grounding the tip of the jack if the plate is a bit too far in.
Guys, could it be a cause of his issue?

I did think of that, and it could be an issue, what I will do is heat shrink around the + lead and that would sort that. If there was no contact between the shield and the jack plate then there could be no short. so, trim the shielding back from the top edge of the body by a fraction of a poofteenth and no problemsOriginally Posted by FredA
