In this video we show you how to fix the hum in a guitar, especially a guitar with single coil pickups. The guitar shown is a 2003 Mexican Telecaster with handmade pickups.

We use three methods to take care of the hum:
-Shielding
-Star Grounding
-Shortening Wires
-Twisting certain wires together (phase cancellation)
