                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Yeah, it's not a common model.  The only reason I got it was because they didn't have the Ibanez Hollow body that I was looking for, and said that they didn't think they were getting anymore in  (which was a lie, they had them in the next week).  <br><br>But that's neither here nor their, the guitar sounded amazing, so I went with that and not the name brand.<br><br>I did fix the guitar, it turned out that the wire coming from the floating pick up was bouncing off the body and so I just tape it up to the pick guard.  I did also tighten the screws a bit.<br><br>Thanks for all the help!]]></content:encoded>

I would be a little bit worried that foam might react badly over time with the finish and/or the pickguard material.  Maybe a piece of felt instead?]]></content:encoded>
