Hey guys, just bought a load of parts to create my own strat, I had a loaded scratchplate with all the wiring doneas I don't really have confidence in my soldering skils, well I joined the jack socket well enough and the one through the body has joined to the claw plate but when I plug in and touch any metal part it buzzes like you wouldn't believe, any advice or tips would be immensly appreciated

  • Swap the two wires at the jack plate, you're touching the hot side of the circuit when you touch a metal part, you ought be touching the ground side.  Flipping the phase at output is probably the easiest way to fix it
