Tone Cap Tester

CAD 49.99

Test any capacitor — any brand, any value — with no tools or soldering. Once you find the one you like, you can install it with confidence.

SKU: TCT Categories: ,

The BTone Tone Cap Tester takes the guesswork out of choosing the right tone cap for your guitar. Instead of soldering caps in and out over and over, you can test them outside the guitar in seconds.

  • Plug your guitar into the input and your amp into the output.
  • Clip in any capacitor to the alligator clips (any brand, any value).
  • Roll the knob and instantly hear how it changes your tone.

Once you’ve found the cap that works for you, you can install it yourself — or have a tech do it — knowing you’ve made the right choice.
