Vitamin Q, Orange Drop跟Gibson 50s'原始vintage的Bumble Bee 和Black Beauty一樣都是接在背版Volume & Tone VR轉鈕之間的cap.. 裝之前: 裝之後: 而這是原始的Gibson Bumble Bee, 貴到爆.. http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Vintage-Gibso...Z2384QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262 http://cgi.ebay.com/Gibson-Les-Paul...Z2384QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262 不過我覺得不需要追求這種炒作過的老Bumble Bee, 一般市售的Vitamin Q聲音就很棒了.. http://cgi.ebay.com/2-NOS-022-200v-...oryZ7266QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem 一般的Gibson型號都能裝, 音色差在那?? 基本上會變的比較Vintage, 也比較甜. 不過還是要看裝的是015, 022, 047?? 自己的喜愛決定... 而且當你用500K或300K的pots出來的聲音也不一樣... 相關資料. 慢慢研究吧... http://www.singlecoil.com/docs/paula.pdf
網路上有關為什麼電容會影響電吉他音色的資料還蠻多的, google一下很方便. http://www.wyguitar.com/html/tomqq_class_electr/210.htm "电容对音色的影响在使用高输出阻抗的被动式拾音器（就是不带电池的电吉 他…）和高输入阻抗的音箱时最为严重，例如传统的Fender琴接入电子管音箱的搭 配（电子管音箱的高输入阻抗与电子管本身的特性都会衰减Fender的高音，使音色 更圆滑而不刺耳，所以有时候好音色就是来自于电学缺陷的……）。如果你的效果 器输出阻抗低，那么在效果器与音箱或调音台之间的连线的电容问题则对音色影响 很轻微。" "Most guitars and basses with passive pickups use between .01 and .1MFD (Microfarad) tone capacitors with .02 (or .022) and .05 (or .047) being the most common choices. The capacitor and tone pot are wired together to provide a variable low pass filter. This means when the filter is engaged (tone pot is turned) only the low frequencies pass to the output jack and the high frequencies are grounded out (cut) In this application, the capacitor value determines the "cutoff frequency" of the filter and the position of the tone pot determines how much the highs (everything above the cutoff frequency) will be reduced. So the rule is: Larger capacitors will have lower cutoff frequency and sound darker in the bass setting because a wider range of frequencies is being reduced. Smaller capacitors will have a higher cutoff frequency and sound brighter in the bass setting because only the ultra high frequencies are cut. For this reason, dark sounding guitars like Les Pauls with humbuckers typically use .02MFD (or .022MFD) capacitors to cut off less of the highs and guitars like Strats and Teles with single coils typically use .05MFD capacitors to allow more treble to be rolled off. Keep in mind that the capacitor value only affects the sound when the tone control is being used (pot in the bass setting)." 其實用電容更改音色也可適用於Hi-Fi擴大機, 吉他效果器, 前級, Amp Head, 還有喇叭後面的分音器...等. 我之前有自己改Randall的Guitar Preamp(資料如下) http://www.grailtone.com/guitar-tone-articles/randall-modules-modifications.html 只換上不同的電容音色就差很多, 可以讓低頻便緊, 也可以讓tone更Sag, Smooth...whatever..蠻好玩的. Here's what you get with each capacitor change: .0047u - Lots of low end in the gain making the attack feel soft .0022u - cuts the lows in the gain a little making it tighter (stock on XTC) .001u - this value gives the module really tight pick attack.
順便借這個討論問一下， 如果LES PAUL後段想換個適合METAL的PICKUP， 爬過文幾個比較有名的像sh-8、sh-13、老爺爺 好像都有人反推，說聲音會糊糊的， 不知道有沒有推薦的後段PICKUP!?謝謝!!
這裡面有典型的classic音色 http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=0HyFBpzGcmE&feature=related 前面那把是極品不要看～直接跳到後面就是classic囉！ cls的音色會比std烈一點～所以兩者音色是有差別的！ 不過並沒有好與壞～再者每個人對於聲音的感受度不同！
http://www.rsguitarworks.net/rsstore/product_info.php?products_id=392 剛剛才換了這個套裝. 聲音分別很大, 明亮, open多了 不過因為一次過換了500k pot及cap. 所以都不知道那一樣對聲音影響最多. anyway, highly recommend for your info, i use les paul with paf type pickup, SD seth lover SH-55
