I don't think so. and the hum subsides when I turn and face a certain way. It gets worse when I'm near the chandelier in the dining room, too. I'm pretty sure I've got an antenna inside that's un-shielded.



The first night I played it, it hardly hummed, but since then, I've been all up inside it twice. I'll go back in one day and see if i can improve the faraday cage.



Pete was telling me that if you have a circle in your ground wires, you'll get a lot of hum. I kind of just squooshed wires in there last time, so maybe something is contacting something.....


I've been kicking around getting a couple quick connect clips to go into a central ground that would make yanking the pick guard an easy thing. They way they're designed, you have to disconnect the ground to the claw in the back, and the 2 wires leading to the jack in order to fully remove the pick guard. Seems like that should have been improved.
