Dudz Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I've recently played a few G&L and Gibson custom shop guitars and the volume controls on them are great. They actually decrease volume steadily without removing treble all the way down to where they turn off! I know that G&L uses a special capacitor wired to the volume pot to do this but I din't know what capacitor this is and as for Gibson I have no idea. If anyone can tell me what potentiometers and capacitors they use I would gratefully appreciate it. When trying out the Gibsons I also found that p90's are amazing and I don't understand how they aren't more popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
