nic guitar as an antenna
a buddy of mine wanted to be able to pick up radio sounds with a flick of a switch on his Tele. He wired it so it lifted the ground I think. So I tried to of a way to intensify the radio sound... I was wondering if it could be as simple as a high pass cap?

How about getting the lead to act as an antenna as well. Just reverse the phase so that the shield acts as conductor, and the earth goes through the core.  
 
I seem to remember that when I had a lot of radio interference a wah-wah was a good way of changing the intensity.
