Hey Mac, if you can get your hands on that aluminum duct tape you'll like it better than foil. It's about twice as thick as regular foil and the adhesive on the back is very good. I've got an old Squire Bullet that I rescued from a pawn shop. I put new pickups and guts in it and it buzzed like a population of hornets, so I took everything back out and duct taped everything that I could and the back of the pickguard grounded the works and viola! no more buzz even with the single coils. I did use an ohm meter to make sure I had continuity of tape throughout and had to do some piecing to get it right but it worked good and was next to nothing for materials. Another use of duct tape for the list. What the hell did we ever do without it?
