On Sunday morning, I equipped my Strat with a silent single coil back plate system from Ilitch Electronics. I have the newest configuration where there is a cut-out to keep the claw, springs, and block fully exposed for easy string changes and tweaks to the tremolo action.

I have to say that I’m totally blown away by this product. Removing the 60Hz hum, which this product does beautifully, opened up all sorts of complexities in the sound that I wasn’t getting before. The attack feels crisper, and the sustain is more natural as it fades into silence instead of hum. I have to think that, with the booster I like to always keep on, the amp was just getting too much 60Hz to be able to properly amplify the true sound of my guitar…until I put on the magical back plate. Delay and other effects stand out more now too.

I’ve really been enjoying my Strat over the last couple days.

Hey Ilitch,
I’m loving the backplate strat noise cancelling system I bought and installed. It’s an amazing invention, and so refreshing to hear how my strat sounds without the hum. Amazing…
