I've just built a couple of these preamps to use as buffers on my acoustic guitar pickups. One is being driven from a Sunrise magnetic soundhole pickup, the other from 3 piezo bugs glued under the bridge plate of the guitar. going to a seperate outboard blender. The output from the piezo bugs is quite a lot higher than the magnetic soundhole pickup so i need to give one pre a bit of gain, i read somewhere if you shunt the bottom resistor (R2)with a high value capacitor it will increase the gain or with a small cap it will increase the treble. I've tried 100uf and 47 uf but it kills the output any idea what value cap to add? Do i need to alter the input resistor to suit the impediance for each pickup? or is there another way of increasing the gain of one pre?
