Hello, there are many "suggestions" available online, but I was just hoping that some of you good folks here might have some sound advice that may be Starfire specific. (This doesn't happen on my Danelectro 12 string)
I am having "crackling" issues, that I believe are unrelated to the grounding on the guitar and seem to be related to touching the pick guard etc.
I am 100% sure that all the grounding connections on my guitar are connected correctly (double checked all through with multi-meter).
I would try copper shielding tape on the inside but that seems nigh on impossible to fit, as does painting with shielding paint but, is that not more for fixing for electronic/grounding issues anyway.
I am absolutely certain that the crackling issue is only static.
I have read of the "clothes drying cloth" suggestion but I would imagine that this is only a temporary "quick fix"?
Any one know of a more permanent solution (maybe a different pick guard material etc). Any suggestions much appreciated.
Cheers............Brian.
