Specs:
- New old stock K40Y-9
- 0.033uF
- 200v
- 21mm x 8mm
Can be used with either humbucker or single coil equipped guitars. The
K40Y-9 are high quality paper in oil capacitors. The
conductor is made of aluminum foil and the dielectric is oil saturated
paper, glass sealed in a metal body. These capacitors provide
excellent sonic characteristics, high tolerance is kept within a wide
temperature range.
A word of warning: there is a lot of misinformation on the internet about paper in oil capacitors - some people seem to think that just because it is paper in oil it is therefore a great audio capacitor - this is not true!
K40Y-9 are the ones to go for in your guitar. Other types such as the KY42 series (these are the green ones) will not make your guitar sound better.

See my other listings for other values. I also sell the following values: 0.01uF used in Fender Jaguars for example 0.015uF for that 'woman' tone 0.022uF 400v version - much smaller (8mm x 21mm) than the 1000v version - best choice where you have limited space in your control cavity 0.022uF 1000v version - same great tone for less money than the 400v but bigger physical size (10mm x 36mm) 0.047uF typical single coil value 0.068uF typically used with single coils 0.1uF the value found in vintage strats, also a favourite with players like Danny Gatton for wah type tone sweeps I also have a range of other high end guitar parts and accessories in my ebay shop.
