Depends if you want to replace them with higher spec ones.
Otherwise, no.


do you think i should? Also if i am replacing the volume and tone pots for the bridge should i just replace the others as well?

Need no, but if you are going for a general upgrade of your electrics you may as well do the lot. I would anyway :)

Hey guys...to all nailbomb owners and other BKP owners...what type of caps did you use?.I have my nailbomb going in a les paul... Mahogany body.What do you guys suggest cap wise to use? I was looking at the schematics and i order a .047 goodall(nailbomb-bridge pickup and a Sprague "F" .022 (neck-stock pickup).The sites schematics said .047 so i thought it was standard for all the pickups,but then i emailed tim. He help me and told me he uses .022 in his guitars.any help?? or do you guys think i will be fine with the caps i got? I want it to have punch ,but i don't want it to be really muddy.

Typical for a Les Paul is a .022 and .015 cap. I have never used anything other than that in my Les Paul's.
