Used Monte Allums Teflon Shielded cable for run to input jack on hot wire. No jack cavity shielding required with that stuff! |
|
|
Masking tape holds wires nicely in place to lay in routed
cavity channels. |
|
|
MonteAllums.com sells full thicker pre-cut Strat shield but couldn't wait and used his 811 sheet and fashioned my own. |
|
|
Fully lined copper tape into cavities from larger 8x11 sheet with sticky backing. Then spot soldered seams for continuity. |

Monteallums.com sells the pickup cutouts for .10 cents when they make
pickguard shields! Grab a bunch and line the pickup cavities! |
|
|
Test continuity with multi-tester point tips set to 20k Ohms. Zero reading is good! Anything above, hit with a dab of solder on seam. |

Hand Dotted Markers with Felt Pen. Wore off in 2 days! Need another solution |

Lefty strap hole needed to be drilled for righty which has been done as shown. |
|
|
Copper on pickguard and on cavity edges to touch to create full shield. |
|
|
Capacitors were .22uf on neck and .1uf on bridge. Changed to .047 Sprague Orange Drop bridged across both pots. |

Had to enlarge pot holes for larger CTS style pots. |
|
|
Japan half sized old pot compared to
larger CTS pot on right. Not sure if there's any quality differences or not but better safe than sorry. |
|
|
Neck and Bridge pups on middle tone pot, Middle on end pot by itself. Simple to bridge neck and bridge pup together with short jumper wire on switch |

.047uF Orange Drop Cap smooth! Not too dark, not too bright. |
