Over the years I have discovered the guitar shielding tape, too. When I build a new design Strat for my son (he does custom design guitar circuits for folks, I'm just the woodworker- some HRW folks will remember the custom Strat I made for myself from quilted maple and rosewood), the customer decides what the body wood and the neck wood will be, and I build it accordingly, including my son's fancy circuit. I line the pickup cavity, the underside of the pick guard, the tunnel to the pots and switches cavity, and the bridge pocket with that same copper shielding Frank is talking about. It is more expensive and thicker than the copper tape used on slot car tracks.
