It's worth getting a sheet of the stuff for the pickguard, easy to do, and if that tape is non conductive you'll need to put a blob of solder between each strip which is a recipe for melty pickguards! Even though the sheets I had are fully conductive I still heeded wise nerds advice and soldered any joins where I'd had to use a new bit in the actual routing. The guard is all one solid bit so no need.
I think the strips will actually be a lot easier for the actual routing, just take your time and I'm sure you'll get it all neat and tidy!
Thanks for the kind words y'all! _________________

conductive paint works also perfect
can do body whit conductive paint and use a foil of cooper for the pickguard
thus cooper seems more vintage look / Old school. _________________

So after my strat project hit a showstopper I turned to the next nearest done. My fucking loony tunes wiring jag stang. It was stripped nearly a decade ago and then sat in storage. Time to add much needed contours and shed some weight

Fanks Thom! Spent two days contouring and grain filling by hand.

Faarrk I hadn't even thought about it. I hope not! I don't think he does it anymore. its worrying enough hoping to get sufficient coverage with one can. He does do an orange but I think its like a bright orange. as it is I lost the primer and lacquer I had so will need to buy that again. _________________
