My '64 custom shop isn't shielded... they weren't shielded when they came out in '64 either.

I've never had a problem with noise.

In fact, I don't think any of my Fenders have shielded control cavities.

If I was having issues, I would look into shielding... but I never have.

Maybe I've been lucky or something.
