Hey all,
So I just began reshielding my Ibanez RGA121. I'm at an impasse where I'm debating whether or not to shield the pickup routes. I've done this on other guitars, but not sure whether or not it was absolutely necessary. The other factor in this decision is that the neck pickup route is where the neck joins the body, so I would be painting the neck as well:
Is this okay?
Also: should I be shielding the wiring routes that go inside the body? These:
I feel that this is most likely necessary to complete the Faraday Cage that shielding seeks to create, though on guitars that have beens shielded using copper tape, I can't imagine they were able to get inside these spaces. Any advice is appreciated!
