No Buzz for you!

It's the subject of much debate, but has always yielded excellent results for me. 

I've recently done some shielding on Ms Nesbit and she likey.  Tried some graphite shielding spray paint and it's just wonderful.  As y'all would say, it's got me pleasantly chuffed (ha!).  If the humbucker is 100% noise free, then the single coil and split settings are at 95%+.  My condo is replete with cr@p wiring and fluorescent lighting in my studio.  This place is the real litmus test.  I've yet to play a noisier stage!

The use of shielded cable is redundant within this fully shielded cavity, but the mad scientist in me loves over engineering to a fault.  Enjoy.

generally speaking, what does the better job? graphite paint or copper foil?

in my Dean Caddy, I`ve already had some graphite paint sprayed in control cavity but just in case I used copper foil on the top of it. It`s dead silent even when I split my neck CS.

Honestly, it's a wash, provided the paint is applied at the proper thickness.

in my case, the layer of paint was really thin, so extra shielding of copper foil won`t do any harm.

Sounds like you nailed it

You just test it with a continuity tester and if the shield is not complete then add more paint.

It's important to ground the shield to the back of a pot with a wire.
