Most plastic is virtually transparent to EMI / RFI radiation, meaning they don't do diddly to stop the interference. Federal Communications Commission or the EU dictate standards for both emissivity of EMI / RFI and sensitivity to interference.Ī note about plastic pickguards vs. Shielding from EMI / RFI is done for two primary reasons: (1) to keep your electronic device from interfering with others, or (2) to keep other devices from interfering with yours. In short, almost all electronic circuits develop some level of EMI and / or RFI.
The clock in your computer oscillates and produces interference. Sensitive components and circuits can be disrupted by interference from sources like power supplies, fluorescent lights, electric motors, switches and relays, even IC's. Electromagnetic radiation and radio frequency radiation are all around you! Their effects on the human body are the subject of fierce debate, but their effect on electronic devices is clear. Why do I need to bother with shielding my guitar?ĮMI / RFI stands for ElectroMagnetic Interference and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI is just EMI over the range of 1kHz - 10GHz). Read more information below or follow the Wiki links below, and find out the answers to the following questions: We did the research, experimented and came up with what we believe are the best aluminum pickguards and control covers for your electric guitar. Heck, we didn’t make this stuff up just to sell you something.
Made of aluminum, these pickguards eliminate 60 cycle hum, shield against EMI / RFI interference, eliminate static noise and they look beautiful.
