For me the cap needs to match the pickups. Some picksups have more bass, mylar would be better. Other pickups have a higher output or treble sound, (gibson 496/500t) Pio would tone that down. Have to experiment with both pickups and caps to really achieve what sound you like the best you hear and feel from within.
I thought I'd like the PIO better but it's not even close, the PIO is muffling too much of the high end signal, I'd go with the Mylar, you can always turn back the knob a bit if you want less high end
MYLAR the best 👍

Wait...Are you using the tone controls at all, or are they wide open? That's when the cap does it's job, when you roll off the tone.
I prefer Mylar.... most LP's used Mylar caps!
Did you measure the capacitance values pre test? Tolerance accounts for any audible variation.
Thank you for doing this great comparison! Definitely a difference. I also preferred the PIO. Which did you end up using?

im using mylar right now but prefer certain pio's for that "deep, untouchable" tone you get from distortion
I don't know how it sounds live but thru this video the PIO sounds warmer, please tell me your opinion because of your live sound when you recorded
PIO 100% as well
Isn’t the to e pot a high frequency to ground bleed? If so, the cap only controls how many highs are cut…it’s a negative effect, it has no tone….

저는mylar이 솔로기타 부분에서 더 좋게 들리네요ㅎㅎ
존메이어 스트랫같은 기타도 빈티지 캐퍼시터 구매해서 교체하면 톤이 좋아질까요??
음 좋아진다 확신할수는 없는데 큰 돈 들이지 않고 할수있는 재미있는 개조중에 하나인거 같아요~ 분명히 변하기는 합니다. 근데 그게 E Blue님이 좋아하는 음색일지 아닐지는 달아보셔야 알수 있을것 같아요. 기타와의 궁합도 중요하구요~
그렇군요...!! 좋은 정보 감사합니다🙇🙇
둘다 괜찮은데요! Pio 좀더 하이톤이 묘사가 좋은데요! 반면에 Mylar 는 mood가 있네요! 둘다 이스톨해서 스위치를 만들어쓰면 어떨까요? 음악 장르 마다 선탯해서 쓸수있게 가능하면요?
Sungwoo Hong 비비킹이 그런식으로 로터리 스위치를 만들어 쓰는걸로 알고 있는데 저는 제기타를 그렇게 까지 개조할수는 없을것 같아요 기분에 따라 바꿔 쓰죠 뭐 ㅎㅎㅎ
? Didn't hear anything that a slite adjustment of tone controls or picking attack couldn't change.
next time, actually use the tone pots lol
Bo Huggabee thats exactly what i thought
you can definitely hear how the Bumble Bee gives it more of that vintage tone everyone wants out of an LP...
