Changing tone capacitors in a guitar?
JGravelin replied to Pieman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Yes and Yes, as Murkat said. Hey buddy! Different caps in tone at the same rating exhibit mild differences in the "put forth" of the resonant frequency peak of the sweep of it yes. It IS audible. But this is also directly tied to value of the pot used and the built-in sweep of it, combined with Vol pot value and sweep. I hope all of you are aware that you can gang-solder lower value caps together directly on the Tone control and really massage the response there. Same with resistors on Vol pots. Bless all of us who chase this shit down! -
2025 HFC Pickup Special!

The Aged Ivory PAFtype pickups in photos show above has sold. I'd love to see the SV2 12.3k 50mm bridge and the B-stock Zebra D'PAF 7.7k 49.2mm spaced neck go together. Killer combination there! -

Zebra neck and DC bridge most likely, yes but Zebra in both positions wasn't uncommon either and plenty of examples of this out there. ==== ***3 sets sold! 9 remaining. -

1978 was DiMarz PAFs. Colors could have been anything: dual zebras, ivory bridge and zebra neck, blacks - hard to say! -
Hi everyone! It's been a few years since I've done this as I typically tie it to Shishkov batch orders and getting rid of extra parts, B-stock pickups, and a few oddballs I build out just for kicks! This one is going to be a little different in that it's 100% Hamer-Specific early days reproductions. Brass frames, top quality and same as OEM. I've got enough for a dozen sets and a few extra 50mm bridge pickups. Additionally, I have six 52.5mm frames and for those of you with certain Sustainblock bridges or Floyd Rose or Kahler-equipped guitars who want ideal string-to-pole spacing, I am please to be able to accommodate with this. This is a very limited offering and if you're a HFC Supporting Member, you get the deepest discount. If you're reading this and are not an HFC Member, hey just do it: Join up! Support the coolest guitar forum on the internet by signing up and getting with our great community here! It's a great crew of people here and we'd love to have you with us. Specs: It's brass frames with all and they are exactly like squarefoot models of the early days. Roughcast Alnico 5 magnets, original spec with the internal grades of steel bits and exactly right down to the ferrous steel bobbin mounting screws. The single coils feature .671L/.187D A5 rod magnets. I fabricate the brass frames for these right here in my shop because no parts supplier offers them. *Pricing for HFC Members: Humbuckers, $120/ea. Single coils, $90/ea. Free USPS Priority Shipping! *Non-HFC Member Pricing: $150/ea. for humbuckers, $120/ea. for single coils. Free USPS Priority Shipping! You choose your favorite Hamer pickup model (PAF-type or any Slammer Prototype/Phantom variation humbucker or single coil V1, V2, V3), your choice of bobbin colors (Black, White, Ivory, or any combination there), and finally your choice of output leads: vintage braided single conductor, 2 conductor + ground, or 4 conductor + ground. Single coils come with PVC Black and White output leads, just as the originals did. I will happily advise on matched, balanced Neck and Bridge humbucker sets if you so desire. If you want covers, the ones I use are made and plated in Nashville, USA, and the best ones out there. +$20/each. Hamer PAF-type humbucker average spec: 7.7k +/- neck and 8.3k +/- bridge. Hamer Slammer Proto/Phantom humbucker average specs: V1: 10.6k +/- bridge with a 10.3k +/- neck. The V2 bridge is 12.3k +/-, and V3 bridge is 15.6k +/-. Hamer Slammer Proto/Phantom Single coil average specs: V1: 5.4k +/-, V2: 6.9k +/-, and V3: 7.8k +/- And finally, I will also build a few oddball humbucker extras using B-Stock bobbins that have mild scratches and scuffs that can't be sold "As New", posting them in this thread at discounted prices. First come, first serve with these at $100.00 - Free USPS Priority Shipping! To confirm your custom order, message me Here or at [email protected] and claim your set! I have PayPal and Venmo for payments. Thank You! Some examples, ready to ship:
