tauzero Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 23 hours ago, fleabag said: I never thought of the value, just assumed that 47k was standard, and they dont always print the 0. or 0.0 on the cap This is the cap in question I think, if it obeys the same sort of numerical system as resistors, that will be .47. I think it means 47 x 10^4, ie 470 000 pF. The best bet is to put it on a component tester. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 (edited) So size does matter. They lied to us. New cap on the left from Black Dog, listed as 0.047. Monster on the right has now been blow torched. And i have proper use of a tone control , finally. Thanks to all for helping out Edited May 7, 2023 by fleabag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
