Not just another Active Pickup or on board battery operated preamp BUT a system that addresses every performance depleting issue the multi-pickup electric guitar has had since it’s invention almost 80 years ago.

Gone Forever;

• The volume and tone control interactions that would make you crazy trying to get the sweet spot at just the right level and tone.
  

• The high frequency attenuation due to cable length issues.
  

• Those Batteries that always went dead at the most crucial times, for those of you whom have tried or continue to go the Active Pickup route.
  

• Good-bye to that crude 5 way knife switch!  There are 7 possible combinations and now they are all available. each at the touch of a button,
  

• No Longer will you inadvertantly push the lever switch into the unwanted position.  How many times has that happen to you Strat guys??
  

• The fidelity masking effect of parallel connected pickups. Finally experience what your pickups really sound like individually and in combination. (Your going to be surprised at what you have been missing).  Even the best pickups available improve remarkably.
  

• Passive tone controls that really just remove High frequencies, severely limit full fidelity and always interact with the volume control.  Presently if you require more Bass response without sacrificing High Frequency response and vice versa you already know that's impossible with the traditional tone controls provided at the instrument.  Problem solved.
  

Say Hello to GASCAPS and;

• Profound tone improvement and infinitely superior timbral possibilities.
  

• A quantum leap in dynamic  range .
  

• Greater natural sustain because the pickups are isolated and working into a constant Extremely Hi Z (EHZ/CC patented technology) affording virtually Zero signal loss.
  

• Remarkable versatility from a single instrument.  Emulate all the traditional tonal charactertiscs as well as create your very own.
  

• Rich and practical feature set for the player/performer at the instrument side of the system. Not half a stage away.
  

• Electronically Isolated pickups that will provide a depth and clarity to any instrument regardless of the pickups used.  More on this later in Why & How it Works section. 
  

GASCAPS doesn't care what pickups may be your particular poison; GASCAPS dramatically improves the sound of any pickup regardless of the brand or the model.  GASCAPS allows all passive pickups to attain and deliver their maximum sonic potential. Your pickups and therefore your axe will exhibit a dramatically improved transfer function which is immediately discernable not only to you but any one that has ears.  Field tested and proven over and over again.

• 7 way touch button electronically switched pick up combination selector with illuminated  indicators.  So you have 3 pickups, that means there are 7 possible pickup combinations.  Say hello to all 7 possibilities, and they are all useable and distinctly unique therefore affording the a player a myriad of new timbral possibilities. and all available at the touch of a single button.
  

• Active equalization that provides both boost and cut instead of those high frequency depleting tone controls that effect the volume in addition to sonic mud they introduce.  Now experience a tonal versatility right at the instrument allowing a virtual cornucopia of tonal possibilities.  You can now emulate many of the traditional models and famous artists signature sounds as well as create your very own and all from the same instrument.
  

• Gain Equalization allows the user to balance or blend if you wish the pickup outputs or create yet another broad spectrum of opportunities for tonal contouring in tandem with the instrument side Active EQ.
  

• Phantom Power so you NEVER NEED ANOTHER BATTERY FOR THE GUITAR EVER AGAIN.
  

• LEAD BOOST Enable (LBE) provides touch button control and illuminated indication.  Time for lead?  Get another 3dB of boost at the touch of an ergonomically positioned touch button switch.  Touch it once get the gain, touch it again your right back where you started volume and tone wise.
  

• LO Z output; compatible with all instrument amplifiers, Sound Reinforcement and recording mixers, GASCAPS provides you with multiple outputs to include a balanced output so if you want to run multiple amps and send the output to a balanced input device it's all there.  Lo Z eliminates the cable length issues to include loss of signal amplitude and high frequency attenuation.
  

• Nothing new to learn just play the instruments as you always have.  It just sounds incredibly better and provides some really fantastic features..
