Your Problem: You roll down your volume knob, and your treble goes with it.

The Volume kit will install on the lugs of your Volume Pot and will bleed treble as the Volume Pot rolls down. This is essential for Country, Blues, and Rock guitarists who want to keep their high end and utilize their volume knob.

Not a treble bleed for cleanup with overdrive/pedals. May work fine for volume knob cleanup straight into a clean amp, but for use with any drive/fuzz pedals for cleanup, you’re getting too much upper-mid honk and shriek, and you’re better off with the PRS-style treble bleed 180pf cap only.
-
Whether my volume is loud or quiet the treble sparkles. Hurrah!
-
Installed on Tele with their Blues Special pickups, does exactly as described, works perfect and a great addition. Thank you.
-
These things are amazing! Such a small component that makes a world of difference. I ended up putting them in 3 guitars so far.
-
I have had Lindy’s Blues pickups in my Strat for years but was always bothered by loss of treble and “fullness” when I turned down the volume. This was an easy install with a soldering iron and I am really happy with the results. I wish I had done this sooner.
-
Installed in an Am Pro Strat and does exactly what you expect it to!
-
Used on an American Professional strat and functions perfectly.
-
Amazing enhancement from adding these treble bleeds to my 1980s Les Paul. Uncovered significant amount of tone that existed in the Tim Shaw pickups.
-
Used on an American deluxe Tele. I had a spare slot on the S1 switch and I wired my volume kit so it will activate when the S1 is pressed down. The series mode is always louder and I turn the volume down. With the kit I don’t lose my highs. Plus it works on neck and bridge. Press the S1 and everything is like a normal Tele. With the volume rolled off a little in neck or bridge, activate the volume kit and there’s a big difference. Overall the kit works great and it’s nice being able to choose with or without.

Great addition to my Pure PAF pups
The Pure PAFs are great pickups. They were an awesome choice for my thin-line hollow body. But it already has a somewhat dark tone with sweet, bubbly upper mids. The pure pafs really helped bring out more of the guitars natural tone. And I love adjusting my volume and tone knobs quite a bit when I play. The volume kit really helped balance things out. There’s way more independence now between the two knobs. I like to use a little compression and I can really dial back my output and dynamics without it darkening the tone. The tone pot has complete control over that now which is great. My other hollow body had the same type of set up so I was glad to see the option for these pickups. I highly recommend it for humbuckers and hollow body guitars. It just keeps your tone and dynamic levels intact as you make adjustments. -
Added some punch. Nice!

My favorite
I’ve tried several resistor/cap combos, and this is my personal favorite. I have it on all of my guitars. Some players want warmth. The change in tone from lowering the volume serves a purpose for them. The problem is that when you move the volume control again, the tone changes again! I prefer to use this kit, select my target tone on the guitar & amp, and always have it the same, regardless of volume. To my ear, this kit nails it. I’m always in the top half of my volume control (and why wouldn’t you be?). I don’t sense any change in tone from 1/2 to wide open. I love it. Very transparent; bridge pickup loves it! Highly recommended. When you first install it, it may seem intrusive, so you roll your tone knob back. Soon, you’ll open the tone knob again and hear this crystal clear singing tone. I considered installing a switch to select it, but I soon decided that the switch would always be in the ON position, so I just went back to playing!!

Smooth job, as advertised
2nd volume kit, in 2nd guitar. Works very well at allowing you to drop guitar’s volume without dropping high end. Essential for milking the most out of your amp and gain pedals -
Noiseless P-90’s in a brand new 2018 Les Paul Special
These pick ups cured the common 60 cycle hum/buzz that P-90’s are known for. They sound great and the volume and phase reversal push pull
Pot makes it a tone king! The people that work there are focused on customer satisfaction and it shows. My only comment is that I had to replace the rest of the pots due to the fact that the brand new Les Paul Special had a hard wired circuit board inside. Who would have thought that anyway since it only performed basic standard functions from the factory. No tricky switching etc. -

Easy and it works. -
Essential mod
This mod is a must for guitarists who regularly uses guitar volume adjustments to control amp dynamics. No more loss of clarity as the volume is rolled down! -
For me, this mod allows me to get some great crunch tones on my strat by backing off the volume knob when using HIGH GAIN settings. However, way too thin for clean tones. That is why I am installing a push-pull pot so I can select the mod as needed.
-
For the problems in the other reviews, try setting your amp’s controls with the guitar volume at 5 to 6. Once you have the treble tamed there, rolling up to 10 should get Fuller as it gets louder and wilder. Borrowed this suggestion from Rupert Neve.
-
I also could not use this. Adds too much treble as the volume comes down. Really is a problem for me when playing chords.. The whole tone/sound of the guitar is changed when turning down the volume. I had to remove it after my gigs when I got home.
-
I wasn’t as crazy about this result as I thought I would be. Prior to installing this my volume knob was pretty useless as it sucked all the highs out as soon as you go from 10 to 8 or 9…pretty typical. After installing this I definitely do not lose any highs when rolling back but it seems to actually increase the highs substantially to the point it is way too bright when you get down around 6 or so. One way to look at it is that it does its job a little too well. I’d like to find a happy medium somehow. I gave it 4 stars because it is better than what I started with but was hoping for a broader range of useful tone when rolling back my volume.
