I'm digging through my magical musical grab bag of love in hopes of finding a capacitor I can use for a guitar job I'm doing. I found one little red film cap that I cannot identify. As I said, it's red and has F102Kr 630PPi typed on it. Of course, it's an radial capacitor. I'm imagining it's a .102uF but could it be 630 volts? Seems an odd number to me.
Thanks kids and have some fun today.

Thank you. Do you know how I find it's voltage?

If you put it in a guitar, the voltage doesn't matter at all, as it would be simply sufficient as it just says how much it can stand.

In the tone path, correct. In the star ground path, yes. I've never put a capacitor in all the shielding/star grounds I've done. A customer saw a schematic and wishes it done in that fashion. I showed him my little ground tester thingy and showed him how to use it. No matter. What the customer wants the customer gets. Plus, it's just more safe.
