Bluemoon Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Is there a break-in period of PIO caps? I replaced the stock caps in my LP about a month ago. At the time, there was no noticeable change in tone, though the tone controls seems way more responsive. Lately, my LP seems to be producing some really sweet tones...and I am not sure why. I know that I still suck and I haven't changed my amp or my pedal setup. ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom99SS Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I do not know of any break-in period. May want to ask where you got the caps from what they think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
