I'm just wondering if anyone else here mods or makes their own pickups at all? I've started playing with a few I have laying around recently and came up with a question I couldn't find via googling.
Does running a separate baseplate/"body" ground wire from the pickup make a noticeable difference noise wise vs the vintage 2 wire style of just tieing that to signal/coil ground at the pickup? I know most pickups come with the 3 wire setup now but I wanted to know if that's more just out of good practice or actually a noticeable difference.
