Steve A.	Re: strat re-wiring question charlie: Did you shield the pickup coils? I usually do with copper foil tape but Lindy Fralin says that the capacitance effect kills some of the high freqs. I've heard from other folks that using shielded cable inside a shielded cavity also kills the highs and they recommend just twisting the two unshielded leads together very tightly. Lots of different opinions out there- all of them right! < g > Steve Ahola
