about treble bleed

[.bong.]

UPping an old thread! 

Plano ko lagyan ng treble bleed yung guitar ko.

Tanong ko lang is ok na ba yung quality ng mga capacitor/ resistor sa mga generic electronics store? How much ba ang usual price ng mga yan?

Minsan na kasi akong nakabili ng pot sa Lazer then nung pag install ko parang may built- in overdrive 

Ano ba recommended value ng capacior / resistor para sa HS at HSS config? Sorry guys, hindi talaga ako masyado marunong sa mga ganyan 

Thanks

Built-in overdrive?

Ok naman gumamit ng common ceramic capacitors (yung orange na maliliit).  If you're picky, try silver mica caps.  But so far bihira yung hindi gumagamit ng ceramic.  Bili ka marami in different values, and a pair of alligator clips and some 22 gauge stranded wire, para mabawasan yung soldering mo sa pot mismo when you're trying out values.  Some like to put resistors in either series or parallel, but I'd rather get a right value first that I like for a particular pickup and pot combination.  Resistors need more thought with impedance and taper issues you have to further tweak.

So.. siguro get a 1000pf (or .001uf), 820pf, 680, 470, 330, down to 120pf.  If you notice your tone unnaturally getting brighter as you roll down the volume, swap out to a lower value.

Yup. overdrive as in sabog ang tunog, nawala yung kalansing ng single coil, kaya binalik ko na lang yung stock na pot.

Thanks for the info, sir. Try ko yang mga yan

My guitar has one. 330pf capacitor (no resistor) and it works like a charm..ok din yung taper ng volume..

Anong guitar mo , sir? Ano pickups?

Hello mga electronics masters! Meron lang ako questions... I've installed 330uf treble bleed sa tele ko, tapos gusto ko lagyan yung isa ko pang guitar... Kaso wala nang 330... Binigyan ako ng 390uf nung alexan, sabi nila halos pareho naman daw sila... Ok lang po ba yun? Di ba nagkakalayo ng effect kaya? Thank you po.

Surely you mean 330pf?  If hindi available 330, getting a 390 constitutes an 18% variance.  I'd look elsewhere, as 330 is a common value?  Perhaps 300pf kung wala talaga, mas maliit yung variance nun.

I offer wiring services here in our locality. With regards to values, I usually install 1000pf in parallel with 150K resistor for single coils. For H-S-S or the like, I usually install 680pf. For guitar with all humbuckers, 330pf. That's for me lang naman. Nasa sa inyo parin yung decision.
