"I have pulled them apart like I've said. Nice reading comprehension.
Why are you so worried about this anyways?
They don't have some sort of Magic tone and if they do I guaranty your amps dont have the rest of the Magic parts that are just important (Micas, Resitors wire, Pots ect.)
Have you brought this to the feds attention yet like you said you were going to do? This is a international 10k$ industry scam! The madness. Interested in what they tell you"
- Sorry, theres something wrong with my computer, it's not showing me the bit where you say you've played choppy with one of these caps.
They dont have magic, Nicholas. They simply do not 'push' some frequencies, and yet accentuate others.They're just filters...'good' ones.
I dispute the value of these carbon film too ( the stock marshall aren't carbon comp are they?), carbon comp in the right places always make for a better guitar amp.
I have seen some data in relation to stock values of pots...And believe that if this data is true, and the stock pots are 10 percent higher in value..then I could believe this would add to the tone of an amp in a positive way.
Output transformer, Current carrying capability/inability of the power transformer, Output tubes/ Preamp tubes all add to the 'magic'.
In relation to USA law, if it's the same as Australian law, then you're wise in being interested.
If you sell fake shit to people, then you're ripping them off and could end up in Court.
In your case Nicholas, i hope you do.
My humble understanding of USA consumer protection law is that it's more protective to the consumer than here, you may end up in prison and I think that's approriate in your case. the FBI is, I understand, interested in organised crime, which this is. You have one party manufacturing goods, probably in a foreign country, then another party advertising/ misrepresenting those goods then selling those goods using a domestic carriage service.
I've told ebay in writing so they're party to the rip-off by continuing to allow their site to sell these goods.
If law enforcement get involved, or if someone gets sued, then I promise you, all these fake signal caps will disappear from ebay, astrons, mustards and any cap the seller can't prove is real.
We are just at the beginning Nicholas, be patient.
Why do I care?
Because I'm not like you, Nicholas.
Where I come from, ripping people off is a no-no.
pls do re-paste, quote the bit where you state that you've ripped one of these apart.
