Ok that is so totally far ahead of what I was saying and any way I could have expressed it but I think my point survived your expert scrutiny; the shield cannot usefully work without a connection to “ground” on the jack socket (whether or not that actually connects to the Earth) as that’s the only way you will shed troublesome EMF. This is what I was disagreeing with in @nancyjohnson post

I like that one and I totally have a thing about Kate Pierson

Can I have it please ?

You might get better responses if you post some links ?

A bass solo for an entire afternoon ?!?it’s not the 70s you know ..,

As “road surface”

I’m sorry but that just does not compute ... chords ... bass... it’s like “garlic ... bread?” I'm joking of course, not in anyway resentful of other people’s talent, oh no.

Put them side by side and punch both at once. Economy of motion. 👌 make sure someone videos it, then put it on YouTube and when someone asks why, just say “I don’t like m....”

Pass the 🍿...

Rehearse via Skype ?

That bridge is a cheapo one, why replace the BBOT with a different BBOT if it’s actually A Tokai? bitsa - neck might be recent Chinese tokai

I do agree that he probably has at least one other issue. My stingray clone benefited from shielding but he likely has a grounding issue too.

Surely the take-in of the emf causes a current in the shielding, you need to take that away. The energy doesn’t die if you leave it there, although it equally doesn’t die if you ship it to ground, but al least it’s not bothering you any more

Shielding only works with conductivity to Earth, I had thought ?

I bought a “blues tribute” p from eBay and it was fabulously loud and punchy https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F291145247792

I have the EST96a and it’s really good - punches way above its weight

Vintage EST96a

I did it myself

They can play. Like the trad instrument worked in with some funky bass. Like what the drummer is doing too.

Slug tape doesn’t have conductive adhesive so you need to fold an edge over to touch the next piece or solder the pieces together. That’s the price difference between slug tape and copper shielding foil tape

Or as The Knack didn’t say “myyyyy corona....” I really loathe that song

Four thumb rests ? Are you from Norfolk?

I just use a zoom b2.1u with headphones - it can use batteries too. it even has some drum patterns the ampeg svt sample is awesome

What does the rest look like ?
