Post by: chumbox on July 22, 2013, 02:29:13 AM
Will this work (bottom wire says 'out'):

For this schematic:

I understand everything just needs to get to ground somewhere.  I just can't work out in my head if putting the cap between the two grounds of the pots will cause an issue?

Thanks all :)

The bottom (right as drawn) terminal of "Presence" pot is not "a ground" by itself. With the cap to ground, it is not-groundy for bass, groundy for treble, which makes it some kind of tone control.

The drawing will work.
