Paper-in-Oil (PIO) capacitors deliver warm, vintage-era tones, ideal for single-coil-equipped guitars. Popularised in the 1950s, they were used in iconic models like Gibsons with Black Beauty and Bumblebee caps. Made with paper and oil sealed in thermoplastic, PIO caps provide smooth treble roll-off and enhanced clarity.
The .022µF value is perfect for single-coils, retaining brightness while taming high frequencies for a crisp, articulate tone. Ideal for vintage restorations or retro-inspired builds, PIO capacitors offer tonal precision and character for players seeking classic sound.
