  • Newbie question about high end paper in oil caps.

    Went out and bought some Angela coppper foil paper in oil caps (please.....don't criticize).

    Anyhow - a mention was made on their website about

    " Some customers like to connect the outside foil to the "low" voltage end because, even though it is very small, there is a capacitance value between the housing (aluminum tube) and the winding inside, and connecting the cap this way will minimize this capacitance."
    Is there a low voltage end in a guitar tone circuit ?

    Does it matter ?

    Thanks, Dan

    I think it's all nonsense, but the "low" voltage end would be ground in this case.

    Guitars hardly produce any voltage.
    It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure. — Albert Einstein
