Treble Bleed Mod Kit 0.001uF Ceramic Capacitor & 150K Resistor
Keep Your Guitar Tone Bright at Any Volume
Upgrade your electric guitar or bass with this professional Treble Bleed Mod Kit — a precision RC (resistor/capacitor) network that ensures high frequencies continue to pass through your volume pot even as you roll it down. Say goodbye to a dull, muddy tone when lowering your volume; this simple mod keeps your sound clear, articulate, and full of life at every level.
Why You Need a Treble Bleed Mod
On many electric guitars and basses, turning down the volume control also attenuates the treble frequencies, making your tone feel dark and lifeless. The treble bleed mod works by wiring this compact RC network across the volume pot's input and output, allowing high frequencies to "bleed" through unimpeded — preserving your guitar's natural brightness and character throughout the entire volume range.
Product Highlights
- Universal Fit: Compatible with electric guitars and basses — works with standard volume pot configurations.
- High-Stability Ceramic Capacitor: 0.001uF (1nF) rated at 1KV with ±10% tolerance. Low loss, high stability across frequency and temperature ranges, and capable of withstanding high voltage.
- Precision Metal Film Resistor: 150KΩ with a tight ±1% tolerance — delivers the most accurate resistance value for a consistent, transparent treble bleed effect.
- Compact Size: 9.2 × 8.5 × 2.8 mm (approx. 23/64 × 21/64 × 7/64 inch). Please measure your guitar's control cavity before purchasing to confirm fit.
- Quality Construction: Metal construction for durability and reliable electrical performance.
- Package Contents: 1 × Treble Bleed Mod (capacitor + resistor pre-assembled).

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does a treble bleed mod do for my electric guitar or bass?
A: A treble bleed mod is a small RC (resistor/capacitor) network wired across your volume potentiometer. It allows high-frequency signals to bypass the pot and pass through even when the volume is turned down, preserving the brightness and clarity of your tone across the full volume range instead of sounding increasingly dull at lower settings.
Q: Is this treble bleed mod compatible with all electric guitars and basses?
A: This kit is designed to fit most standard electric guitar and bass volume pot configurations. However, we recommend measuring your guitar's control cavity beforehand (the assembled mod measures 9.2 × 8.5 × 2.8 mm) to ensure it will fit comfortably before purchasing.
Q: Why choose a ceramic capacitor and metal film resistor for this mod?
A: Ceramic capacitors offer low loss, excellent stability across varying frequencies and temperatures, and high voltage tolerance — making them ideal for audio electronics. The 1% tolerance metal film resistor provides an extremely accurate resistance value, ensuring a consistent and transparent treble bleed effect that accurately reflects your intended tone.
