    How a Treble-Bleed Circuit Can Affect Your Tone
    What is a treble-bleed circuit and how does it work?
    Passive single-coil pickup systems have an inherent sonic idiosyncrasy: When you turn down the volume, the high-end loss is not proportionate to the volume reduction. In other words, a small cut in volume creates a far greater drop in your guitar's treble response creating “muddy tone”. This is true of the Stratocaster and Telecaster, as well as many other popular models
    A popular solution and one of the easiest mods is to add a treble-bleed circuit
    (network).
    A treble bleed circuit is a capacitor and a resistor wired in parallel. This network is added to the input and output of the volume pot(s).
    If your guitar has more than one volume control, each volume pot needs its own treble-bleed network.
    Adding this network
    allows the highs to “bleed” (or pass) through the volume pot even as it is turned down
    helping to avoid the "muddy-tone" syndrome.
