WOW, This thread is out of control. Their has been 3 bits of advice given here that needs to be corrected. First: When using a piezo pickup, the strings do NOT have to be grounded. 2nd: Wiring does NOT have to be shielded if its shorter than 8". 3rd: It does NOT matter witch side is wired to the ground. OK, 1 more : The type if wire used has nothing to do with feedback.I think you may be thinking about humm. Sorry if this sounds harsh but these are facts, I would hate to see misleading information regurgitated. No one benefits false information.
I will consider myself admonished.

I just finished my first CBG build this past week - everything is fine ... the piezo seems to be working fine. No feedback issues, no screeching etc. However, there is an annoying tell tale 'knocking' sound from the slide as it passes over the frets. At first I ignored it. Now it's bothering me. I used both a glass and a metal slide and the knocking is present with both. The piezo is encased under the bridge in thin wood. Aside from the knocking, the sound is better than expected. Am I the only one experiencing this - if not, is there a solution ?
