    Is the nut of my 2007 Epiphone Les Paul Custom made of plastic or graphite ? Years ago, I had some Tusq nuts put on my 1974 Gibson LPC and my 1971 Gibson Flying V and my Epiphone LPC projected ( still does) notes, sustains and punches just as much as my Gibson's.

    I'm doing a cap replacement.

    A local electronics store went out of business ( sad ) , I managed to get some Orange Drop capacitors at 0.01 mf, 15 mf, 33mf and 47 mf Some are rated to 100 volts to 500 volts. Will the 100 volts rated caps sound different from the 500 volt caps ?
