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.

Can anyone help with a capacitor value issue?

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

Re: Can anyone help with a capacitor value issue?
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.Miles Smiles wrote: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.Zippy wrote:Thank you.
