Grounding a Pickguard

[TelePaul]

I read on a Lollar FAQ that you should ground the back of a pickguard by attaching a wire to a control pot or or the back of the bridge plate. Presume this is only for foil-shieled pickguards?

Sorry, bit of a stupid question!

Grounding plastic won't do much good, that's for sure!

If there's a foil on the underside as part of the cavity shield it'd make sense.
