The Korena take
Use this single 0.015 µF Emerson Custom paper-in-oil capacitor for a guitar electronics change targeted at neck humbuckers or other dark-sounding pickups. Its stated effect is added brightness, along with a natural taper as you work the guitar’s volume control. The mil-spec build places the paper and oil inside a metal case with glass ends, while non-polarized 20 AWG copper leads connect to electronic components. It is a one-piece choice for a specific circuit-value replacement or modification.
