    Using these for a Strat restoration. They worked great.

    I used these big orange drops for tone control on a bass. There's a reason these beefy caps are favored in tone circuits … they work! It feels like these produce sensible tone changes in response to turning the tone knobs, and they do it without muddying up the sound. They are quite large, though, so make sure you have room for them.

    These things sounds awesome and do great rolling back the high tones. But man, they are huge! Rated for 400 volts which a guitar would never need but that’s why they are so big so keep that in mind you’ll need some room in there

    Wonderful capacitors, no notes. Better than stock capacitors.😎👍✨

    I guess they do as advertised. I don't have anything negative to say.

  • Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2025

    As other customers have noted, these capacitors are huge. They are the same size as a genuine Fender Pure Vintage CTS potentiometer. The Seymour Duncan diagram that I followed suggested wiring them onto the top of the tone pots and I installed them in a Les Paul copy. They were easy to install and I didn't have issues with space. I replaced the pickups, pots, capacitors, and wiring in the guitar. I do not know if the capacitors were the deciding factor, but they work and the guitar sounds fantastic!
