 Hey what's up everybody, welcome back to the channel. We're gonna do another Jazzmaster video here. This is the 60s Ventera Jazzmaster. I'm gonna take the pickguard off and we're gonna see what's underneath it. I've got a little bit of this foil tape that may try to line some things up and we'll see how it goes, but I'm really just kind of curious to see what's underneath this. I've been having a little bit of kind of noise and stuff on it lately, so I want to make sure everything is well coated in there with some insulation or kind of reduced the noise as much as possible. I think if you guys have done this before, have any tips for me on this, make sure you leave them in the comments. I'm open to any suggestions on this. You know, I've done a lot of amateur guitar repair in the past and so I'm not really great at this kind of thing, but let's open this thing up and see how it looks. Alright, so I'm gonna replace these strings anyway, so let's just go ahead. I've got them slacked. We'll just go ahead and cut these guys. Let's put these back under here so get this out of the way. Don't scratch the finish. Those are fine that way. Cool. So probably fast forward this a little bit while I take these screws out. Alright, so those are all out. Take this off. Now let's see if we can lift this up. Almost no shielding inside of this at all. So we've got a little bit of shielding here, nothing on the back of the pickguard. I think that's a good shot. Basic cavity, just wood, a little bit of paint down there, nothing else. So I think that adding some more of this copper tape inside of that cavity will help quite a bit. Yeah, so this is what it looks like on the inside of this Ventera. I'm actually kind of surprised that that's not a better quality, although lots of comments on my other Ventera videos. People have been disappointed in the build of them, so maybe it's not so weird after all for it to not look as nice as I would think it would. Anyway, cool. Well, I'm going to get some of this copper tape out and line this up, get it all back together, get some strings on it, and we'll see if it makes any difference or not. Hope this has been helpful for somebody to see the inside of one of these if you're thinking about buying one or whatever. This is what it looks like. Yeah, so anyway, leave me anything in the comments if you want to say anything about this. Otherwise, thanks for watching.
