"Modern non-sheilded with an insulated PVC wrap?"


For Fender style guitars (no real long unshielded - or difficult to shield - wires like on a Les Paul), this stuff works fine for me. Shield the cavities, ground everything properly and go with the simple stuff. I see no reason to go with "vintage correct" cloth wire or Gibson style metal braid shielded wire. I got a three roll package of wire from Radio Shack a few years ago (red, black and green) that's cheap, plentiful and works just fine.
