So I thought I would see if I noticed a difference for the better if I removed the cap going from pin 1 to ground. I actually play bass through my amp.
It's a ceramic cap valued at .002uf it connects pin 1 to pin 8 which is grounded. Pin 5 has a 1500ohm resistor going to Pin 1.
I thought it was there just to kill parasitic oscillation on the silver face amps and expected it to be going from Pin 5 to ground.
When I removed them my amp sounded farty and had some strange overtones and distortion.
Threw them back in and it's back to normal.
Do I actually have some oscillation that might be to high a freq to hear or is that the wrong cap to be removing?
