Improve Your DIY Piezo Preamp with a Passive HPF


This project started as a casual exploration of passive high-pass filter circuits to improve my DIY piezo preamp's performance with guitar pedals; all of my cigar box guitars use piezo pickups. While researching this topic, I learned something important about guitar amps that made my casual exploration of passive high-pass filters very important. Please watch this video if you built the DIY piezo preamp featured in an earlier video and explore the resources below. I hope I've presented my findings clearly in this video, and if not, feel free to ask questions in the comments section. Cheers! - Dr. Liza Seigido , http://psycheopera.com
