Looking for a good source for snake oil.

[Chubbles]

I'm tired of wasting money on stuff things that are supposed to help make something better but don't. I'd like to bypass that and find some inexpensive snake oil that isn't supposed to do anything. It seems more efficient that way.

For years, I bought every piece of gear I could, not really understanding what I was looking for. Now that I have identified the things in a guitar that I prefer, I am able to wade past all the BS and concentrate on the attributes that I desire.

If stuff really made things better, the manufacturers would be all over it. Next time you feel the itch, post it here first and we can give you an intervention...

Greatest source of snake oil known to man is the aftermarket capacitor salesman

I need an intervention on everything in my life.

It is not snake oil that you seek, it's the ever elusive Magic Tone Juice that you need.

As long as you didn't pay more than the 30-cents a capacitor is worth.

Capacitors are worth about a quarter of a cent. That is what my company pays for the better kind.

Yeah, trying to be generous here. For some reason the capacitor thing just bugs me.

Thanks guys, I had an order in for some Leprechaun dinkleberries to use as tone caps. I just cancelled that order.

If you need to put this crap on your nut to get the guitar to stay in tune your nut is cut incorrectly.
