Guitar shielding

I decided to screen my balalaika and now I'm thinking, is it worth it?

Do you want to be like those guys from LLN?

LLN? what's this?
It's just that the phonite is not sickly, and it starts to annoy.

I would joke about antirad and vodka right now, but I'd rather not.
And about LLN it was a joke, never mind.

Well there. A way out has been found. Use the "Subjective Guitar Shielding Due to Alcohol Consumption" technique.
But seriously, have you tried searching YouTube for a video on this issue?

Ta was looking for, but there were many contradictions.
Some say it helps, others are on fire, which is no use.

And you just try it yourself, elementary. After all, how many people, so many opinions. It is worth personally trying it out.

So you don't want to take a steam bath and get a reliable opinion?

In short, laziness :) Worse in any case, that a piece of foil and cutting a high-quality cable is a pity? Inspect the connectors and, if necessary, solder, change the cable, if it is completely China with a screen of three wires, shorten the installation, if the long wires are somehow stuck, paste over with foil, ground the foil. The physics of the process is clear, it turns out an improvised transformer, the primary of which is the wiring, into which the Chinese household equipment blows garbage without filters, the secondary - the cable and installation. But considering how much Chinese shit from the "by weight" category is around, if you don't have a neighbor, you may not be able to completely remove the background. Loosen - yes. I'm not a guitar player, I soldered tube and transistor amps, but the general principles are the same for everything.

Well, I kind of screened it, but xs, I didn't feel the difference, but at the same time I changed the sounds.

Same crap! Here they order, I know there http://www.deanguitars.com/ what kind of chips you want to add, and the guitar should be made in USA but only those that are cheaper than boo and slag)))

My friend also used to run around with Chinese guitars and then eventually came to these firms, not because of the PRICE, but because of the sound it is 100% better.
Then you need to look at used Gibson there and it turns out $ 400-500.
In general, string instruments have always been expensive, such as "handmade", here you don't have to be mentally prepared for the "price".

Well, that's how to say it, because the epiphone is controlled by the Gibsons, so it's almost the same thing.
And a lot depends on the sensors, I've put seymour duncan, and I'm happy as an elephant)
And yes, I would not refuse a firm gibson.

Maybe everyone doesn’t care, but nevertheless, if anyone is interested :)

Your commutation is also of great importance! :)
Do not skimp on wires.

You will get rid of the noise of figs completely.
