Stratocaster Guitar Grounding

Love this thing. It is easy to mount, holds my Stratocaster perfectly, and is simpistically beautiful.

What I really like about these is they can accommodate an uneven headstock like those on the Fender Stratocaster and Jaguar. Others make those hang crooked. The white ones also look great on a white wall. It makes it look like the guitar is suspended on its own.

We use this gaffer tape for fencing (foils). Foil tips must be taped to keep them from accidental grounding. This tape is a great color and stands up well to the rigors of fencing, and also comes off easily with no residue. Touche!

It seems 2 to 3 times a year on live shows I have grounding problems, hums or buzzes that I can't solve. Then I put an IL-19 in line and all is good in the world, it always solves whatever system hums I encounter.

I had been looking for a device that might fix my ongoing grounding hum issue. We have three bands at our church and my electric acoustic (brand not named) was the only one that had grounding hum issues. This device immediately remedied the problem--all is normal now, no hum. A great problem solver. A reasonable price for the results achieved.

This grounding strap is essential in my line of work where I handle computer components all day. This strap is inexpensive but works great, it fastens securely and comfortably around my wrist and grounding wire is flexible enough for me to move my hands around freely and I eventually forget I'm even wearing it.

This is a flexible studio tool, and it comes complete with grounding options, rack-mounting screws and helpful diagrams for signal routing. Essential gear for any studio.

Does exactly what it is built to do. I use this with my FS5-M2 camera when I power my rig with AB batteries. The cord length is perfect for my requirements. I haven't tested it to see if it will isolate power from other devices and/or prevent a back flow of unintended voltage/grounding. But when connecting it to my AB D Tap splitter, which is powering my Inferno recorder there hasn't been an issue. We'll see what happens when I plug in, and share power with a wireless mic, and if any noise/grounding is created. With wireless mics and mixers/recorders you have to be careful about unintentional grounding when using a common battery to power multiple devices. Using an isolating power distribution system will keep voltage only going one way, so it doesn't seek a path of least resistance by traveling back on XLR connectors, creating noise or worse.

Very easy replacement. Don't forget to take off the grounding wire thing before you take out your old tube. If you don't, you'll have to send your light back to Profoto for repair.

I didn't want to punch everything down with this patch bay, so went with the 1/4 variety. It ships in the 1/2 normalled configuration (which is easy to change from the front panel - just pop off the panel, and flip that individual channel's printed circuit board). It also has various grounding options per channel, if you run into grounding problems. Ships with 4 white strips with sticky backing - for those who like to label their patch bays. My favorite feature: the back of the bay is also numbered!! This is extremely helpful when setting up, but is not a very common occurance with other bays I have seen. All around quality unit. And with the Neutrik name stamped on it, I expect the contacts/connectors to last longer than your average bargain brand. Only complaint: the unit is very shallow. You can't place it between 2 other devices, because you won't be able to fit your hands to the rear of the unit to set up your patches.
