TBX Board traces lifting

[Timoes]

Hey. Got a very nice Custom shop Strat on the bench here with noise issues. All looks good under the pickguard. The TBX PCB tho has most of the tracks bubling up in a nasty sort of way. Will this affect it or cause a noise issue? Spose it cant help. Should I just look for a new board?

Depends how bad it is, but if it was me, I'd looking for a new board...when board traces lift off - its either because A) someone has been too heavy handed with a soldering iron - and possibly a too high wattage one - 25watts is the max for small PCB work (obviously a temp. controlled station iron is best)
or B) the board is a cheap crappy thin chinese made piece of junk - solder once then throw out) but its on a custom shop strat so this should not be the case.

Hmmm. Its a funny looking thing goin on. Like its been in a acid bath. Bubbled up and I dear and not touch it in case of breaking the conection. Had a quick gawk at replacements. Not too bad in price. Its a Clapton TBX set up with Lace sensors. Bloody nice guitar !
