Understanding The Uses Of The Electric Guitar Knob

5/1/2019

It is funny to see how people who claim to be guitarists are yet to fully understand what the uses of the electric guitar knob are. Just so you know, these instrumental elements which are visible on virtually all electric guitars have one important role or the other to play. Understanding these features can go a long way to improve your style of play and how you produce acoustic sounds. So, what are the uses for the electric guitar knob?
To some professionals, electric guitar knobs are simply potentiometers – i.e. they are used as complementary devices or terminal components mainly for controlling volume to create a variable electric potential. However, it is imperative to note that tone knobs are not in any way employed to enhance neither treble nor bass effects on sounds produced but they are mainly used to reduce and restore frequencies. Even after removing higher frequencies, players can still restore them back to the sound by turning them up. Ultimately, these devices give players the power to control frequencies on their guitar.
It is common to find professional guitarists rotating those shafts on their guitars. But do you really understand the effects of their action on the sound produced? Basically, these features are established to enable guitarists to get all the frequencies that their guitar and pickups require to effectively produce soothing sounds. Depending on the amount frequencies required, guitarists will need to rotate the shaft backward or forward to find a suitable rate.
Without proper regulation, the electric guitar is very much likely to sound harsh especially when the knobs are set at the highest (10). In most cases, professional guitarists will need to remove some of the higher frequencies by adjusting these knobs to (possibly turning them down) effectively roll off the treble. In simpler terms, you tend to reduce the frequencies when you turn the knob downward. However, restoring the frequencies can be effectively done by turning the knob upward toward 10.
But there is more to these. What are the uses for the electric guitar knob? It is imperative to understand that increasing or restoring frequencies do not necessarily add active treble frequencies to the pickups that guitarist do when producing sounds. Learning to turn the knob is an act of professionalism. Electric guitar knobs can be used to help professional guitarists get the overall tone they need. However, it all depends on how they set the Tone knob.
While it has been stated that removing and restoring frequencies can significantly help to improve the overall tone of the electric instrument, it is, however, important that guitarists adjust their knobs based on the app they are playing through. Regular changes can be made to tone controls on the guitar even while playing.
