I know some of you will be bitching on me in no time but... there is absolutely no difference if you use orange drop caps or a ceramic disc in a passive, low signal application such as cutting out the trebles. As long as the capacitor has the same value it can be replaced with a polypropylene one, or ceramic. For bigger voltages and circuits like amplifiers or something those orange drops are great, but tone knob does not care about capacitor's type. Really.

Nice mod, and your music is great.

@WoodenMosquito New caps cost between $0.40 and $1.00. If there is a chance of making your tone better for this price, why wouldn't you go for it? Maybe to your ears it doesn't make a difference, but some Professional guitarists swear by them. Anyway, modding is one of the best parts of playing guitar

what is the song in the background, and is it available as a backing track?

@tahony41 Thanks dude. It's something I wrote and recorded years ago and chucked on this video, as i needed music that wouldn't be banned for copyright issues.

I bought ORANGE DROP.0047uf 1600vdc capacitor. but a I have a guitar with a similar configuration as yours, The only thing different is that mine doesn't have 2 tone controls, mi question is, did I lose my money? this caps that I bought don't work in my guitar? thanks!!

Mine are 400vdc so I don't know if that has anything to do with it? Are you sure its wired up the correct way round?
