German how to.

Started this discussion. Last reply by KOOL DOG HOOCH Sep 1, 2019. 2 Replies

I recently made a cigar box guitar for my father in law in germany. He plays guitar so I am trying to convert. I know there are a lot of "how to" in english, but is there anything in german?

"Most people that don't use a tone pot will not use a cap, but if you want to use one you can put it between the volume and output jack or use a switch for cap/no cap choices. If you're using a round piezo, you might want to use a cap on…"
