Logical Frank Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 I did this mod to my SG yesterday: http://www.guitarnuts.com/wiring/volpass.php I used .001 uf caps and it sounds great on the bridge but I'd still like a little more highs to come through from the neck when I back off on the volume. Could I use a lower valued cap to get a little more highs through? Also--this is just an idea I had--could I put a high-bypass cap on my tone control as well? I'm still trying to wrap my brain around how all this stuff works but it seems like it would be a cool mod. If my thinking is correct, this would turn the tone control into sort of a mid-scoup so I could get my amp to clean up a wee bit w/o necessarily turning down the volume.

John Platko Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 You want a larger cap to get more highs to go through. You could try adding another .oo1 uf in parallel to the one you already added. Caps in parallel add. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logical Frank Posted October 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Oh--you're right! I was thinking about everything backwards. That makes a lot more sense. I got a couple extra capacitors to try to see what I like best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
