What's that wire that connects to the OFR's spring claw?

[Mario8672]

Some guitars have the wire connected, my KE3 has some solder bumps left on the claw, but there's no wire. I was just wondering what this is and what it does.
Thanks

Is it a problem that my KE3 doesn't have the wire? (It never came with one, but there are solder bumps :S)

Does it have EMG's?
If it does, you don't need the wire.
If not, you should connect a ground wire to the claw and ground it to the back of the volume pot.

does your guitar buzz horribly?

Your KE3 has EMGs, therefore it does not need to be grounded to the guitar/trem claw.

Yea, it has EMGs. Oh, I see.
Thanks
