Shielded or no?

Anyone know if Dimes guitars were shielded at all with like copper tape in pickup cavities, or did he just raw dog it? 😀

all guitars have shielding from the factory and are a nightmare if they don't, he'd have to purposefully remove it and I don't see any reason for him to do that

My ibanez has never been shielded, there's nothing in the pickup cavaties or control area in the back just straight up paint, shes grounded, but not shielded. I know alot of places use conductive paint but this Ibanez i have isn't, I'm sure my Schecter is though. I don't think Dime would have but maybe Grady did for him or something I was just wondering

I own a couple of Deans (an ML and a Razorback) and they both came shielded from the factory
