I would encourage others to try the install. The instructions are very clear and this is an amazing video to follow for advice. I would know because I watched it a dozen times when I installed an evertune into my tele. :) Thanks for posting it!

Why not get a mini potentiometer and set it to the position you like for the bridge pickup and have it controlled on and off with a mini switch or a push/pull bridge pickup tone control p[ot? Sounds like a plan

The standars switch in the bridge position seemed muddy and almost unusable to be. But the Grease bucket sounded kind of distant, I'm a cool way.

Thanks to you I know I will go for 0.10 for the neck and 0.22 for the bridge. Thank you :)

I think I will just eyeball it.

I wouldve purchased one of these already but that HUGE TACKY LOGO on the bridge sucks and I'll never put something like that on my guitar.

Thanks for this demo! A very subtle difference, but I decided to change my graph tech saddles on my '95 MIM Fat Strat Special back to stock ones. Although, GraphTech saddles look amazing on black guitar and much more comfortable to the right hand

The two circuits do different things. The grease bucket is meant to attenuate the highs 'only', so that when you roll off the treble you don't achieve that at the cost of simultaneously rolling off the mids and bass, otherwise...what's the point: everything stays the same relative to everything else, and your tone control is really functioning more like an overall 'perceived' volume control and less like a tone control, because our ears register the presence of the guitar's high notes (that which are really only mids in the greater scope of the full acoustic spectrum) with greater authority than the do either the actual highs and lows. Its the psycho-acoustic effect explained by Fletcher/Munson: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9qAdMR4tq3ao4E.htmlsi=6nKQn87UrEmwqQjA

Do you have an audio-only version (cd maybe?) I can purchase?

Fantastic!

Super cool vibes. Loved this!

@2:40 has that Ritchie Blackmore sound

Great demo! The 0.22 nF cap sounded the best to my ears- it retained all the tasty frequencies, and sooo goood with tone at 5! 0.47 was too muddy and 0.1 was too shrill. You are a fantastic player! Was searching for cap value tests because my Slick SL57 with SSS sounds very warm and has just barely enough sparkle top end with all pots on 10, but as soon as I turn the vol. or tone pot to 8, the sparkling treble is gone. I did not yet opened her up to check the cap and pot values, but I assume them to be like 0.47 nF and 250K. So I was thinking changing the pots with 500 K and after testing maybe the cap with 0.22 nF. Thank you for this vid!👌🏼👍🏼

4:57 It was painful watching that bit slip on the screw.

Many people seem to dislike the greasebucket wiring scheme. I read critical comments almost exclusively. This made me want to try it, and I'm glad I did. It sounds great. People insist that caps and other components don't affect tone unless one of the pots is turned below 10. I disagree. The clean sound of the guitar I put it was noticeably improved by this simple circuit. This even with both controls (tele) wide open on 10. I'm really glad I did it. My ASAT sounded good before, but the greasebucket made it that much better.

Those who have calculated the frequency responses of both the Greasebucket vs standard Fender tone circuits found that they are virtually identical throughout the range of the pot unless you are very close to the minimum setting. The Greasebucket can’t achieve quite as much treble cut due to the fixed resistor in series with it. So it’s basically a marketing gimmick.

These WGS speaker demos on KZfaq are not kind to my wallet.

Ain't it supposed to be .047 uf not mf or pf.

What a well done video. And props on your craftsmanship. Respect.

Great video George. For the single coil strat you are playing what was your personal favourite tone capacitor?

cooL

Best strat with a great player. I prefer 15 and 22nf on every guitar. Cheers from Italy

I could not see any major differences

The black graphtechs sound amazing. That guy hating on them on the forums was definitely wrong. I love them!

I love the black graphtechs on a 6 sadle Tele.

I use a .022 on 250K pots and run an Eq after that it seems to cover everything. I prefer a less drastic variation between 0-10 and that’s the real reason

Great demo

Seems pretty straightforward. NOT!

Both circuits have their uses

Suprised to hear Villa Lobos Etude 1 right hand pattern in a greasebucket demo lol. Great comparison and playing!

I want one

Maybe some guitar kit manufacturers will make their bodies "Evertune ready." Ya hear me, Stew-Mac?!

Did it improve the sustain?

Which one do you prefer?

Kirk?

Impressive!

Is this Brian May!?

Awesome demo!

hey man, how do you prefer that Fishman Prefix over Taylors own system? Love mine on my Gibson Songwriter....cheers

I play fingerstyle but even I can't stop staring at his thumbnail.

you live close to a highway ?

beautiful minimal movement with your fretting hand George that takes discipline & exercise.

Well done top job thanks

10/10 attacks on the notes

I have a nut (love their XL nuts) coming within a month (sold out everywhere so I pruchased now waiting for a restock, and their string saver saddles, TusqXL string trees, and some Fender locking tuners. With all of that are my Squier Bullet Mustang I think it will hold its tuning, because my Squier Fat Strat (with its TusQXL nut) is hard to make it lose its tuning.

Done all this back in 1988 as a project in school to my fender 74 strat, with 3 pull push switches and different tones with TL-02 filters, sounding like Bkackmores MTC into a preamp, but like the 1011 aiwa..... show me something new!

Thanks, Kirk! <3

I think you lose the zing with the graph tech I preferred the bent steel

Great demo, smart idea to tune 3 sets of the same strings. I think I like fender blocks the best. Message to all those snobs who think this is a stupid or useless demo: if you think you can do better, make demo yourself, I’m so fed up with these snobby posing commenters everywhere. Guys like you probably are shit musicians and rather post stupid comments instead of working on becoming a better player. Get a life
