The owner of this beautiful olympic white strat replica asked for a full shielding job and rewiring. I'm happy to say that this baby is much quieter nowadays  .
Simply gorgeous finish.
First look at the innards. The body is one delicious slab of solid wood.
Closer look at the stock electronics.
Here you can see that the body is indeed one slab of wood.
Storing all the components after taking apart this beauty.
Shielding the pickguard.
Shielding the tremolo cover.
Body cavity shielding in progress.
Body cavity shielding completed.
Tremolo cavity shielding in progress.
Tremolo cavity shielding completed.
Pickguard and tremolo cover shielding all trimmed and reamed.
Prep work before rewiring.
Rewiring completed.
Added a ground tab from the volume pot casing to body cavity shielding.
Tremolo cavity before resoldering the tremolo claw ground wire.
Just before reassembling this baby.

good job bro.
- kemas.
- cara yg terbaik utk shield picguard adalah guna aluminium sheet.
- kedai hardware biasa biasa guna utk buat coner atap.
- 1/8 to 1/4 mm tebal pun dah terbaik.
- cuma nak cut macam gambar kat bawah.

- prefer aluminium sebab copper bola teroksida akan jadi hijau.
- ini oksida hijau akan lekat pada cat permukaan guitar.
- aluminium oksida = tak da kesan apa apa.
Aluminium tape utk shielding biasa dalam rm 15-20.
- copper around rm50 to 100 ikut size.
Cuma wire utk wiring jer tak der shielding.
- wire yg bagus utk wiring adalah wire steel [bukan cooper] yang halus core nya.
- Dan ada shielding outer jacket.
- lagi kecil diameter core wire lebih baik sebab luas permukaan wire kecik.
- Radio freq senang attack permukaan yg besar. Mean permukaan kecik wire core hot signal, makin susah radio freq nak attack.
- tapi tak semua bahagian wiring guna wire shielding.
- Guna utk wiring bahagian hot contoh, dari selector to vol, dari vol to tone, dan dari vol to jack.
- utk ground, biasanya aku prefer guna dawai biasa.
- solderkan ker belakang setiap pot, dalam amp kita nama keadah center grounding.

No problem bang.
- pakai prokit solder paste warna jernih, solder sure lawo nyer.
- and wire antara pot kena plan dulu supaya dapat length yg tepat.
- tapi itu dah first class wiring dah tu.

Ultraman_cosmo, terima kasih sekali lagi kerana sudi berkongsi ilmu dengan hambo. Sebenarnya secara lazim hambo akan guna braided coaxial wire (ala Gibson) untuk sambungan yang agak panjang, buat full shielding, tambah ground lug dari volume pot ke body cavity shielding, dan juga groundkan antara volume pot dan dua tone pot.
Namun kali ini, atas nasihat dan pandangan YusTech, hambo cuba untuk tidak groundkan antara pot; kerana beliau percaya bahawa grounding ke shielding dan juga grounding antara pot akan mewujudkan ground loop yang mungkin menambahkan lagi masalah humming. Tambah beliau, memadai dengan semua komponen digroundkan melalui shielding.
Hmmm .... sayang sekali Pro'sKit Solder Paste tak pernah dijumpai di Kuantan setakat ini. Apa yang ada hanyalah Burnley Soldering Paste yang malangnya meninggalkan kesan kehitam-hitaman yang teramat-amatlah hodohnya. Semoga satu hari akan berpeluang bertemu jua dengan Pro'sKit, insya'Allah. Ultraman_cosmo .... you rock
