 Vitamin T capacitor

The most important vitamin of them all! Vitamin "T" oil filled capacitors are handmade one at a time for that perfect tone. These are special musical capacitors designed specifically for guitars and amplifiers to give a lush and creamy top end with lots of clarity. .022uf is recommended for humbuckers and .047uf is recommended for single coils. 

The Original CRL Switch - Made in USA. 5-way version of the switch used in guitars from the early '50s all the way into the '90s.

Still made by CRL, these are improved versions of the originals. The contacts on the older switches would sometimes work loose and rotate, making contact where they weren't supposed to and rendering the switch non-functional. These newer switches have punched notches in the phenolic to prevent this. As a result, these are essentially lifetime switches, you will probably never have to replace one
