Intonation

I also took soldering because I can't do it.

Wiring...I suck at it.

Nothing really bothers me unless it involves a tremolo.

So, there should be a "Anything involving a tremolo" option

I`m not suprised that wiring is in the lead.

Keep in mind that you get what you pay for with solering irons.
You would be amazed how much easier it is when you have a pro soldering iron.
You definately need a good iron/station, with a minimum of 40 watts, and the proper tip. The key with soldering is to have enough wattage to heat the connection as quickly as possible. Pre-tin your leads before offering them up to the connection as well.

back to the poll

installing EMGs....soldering the shielding braid to the back of a pot is the worst thing ever, much harder than most other pickups. i always charge people extra for installing EMGs just because of that

That is another major fail of EMGs

And that their kits come presoldered together, and you must always stretch the hell out of the pots or cut and resolder the battery clip

EMGs=FAIL.
