bassatnight Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Bought an upgraded Duck Dunn with pre-amp, just realised totally by accident the volume control knob doubles as the active/passive switch! Doh!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I have owned my Lakland for nearly 9 years, and I only found out it had a passive switch (pull the volume) 6 months ago!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike257 Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 The guy I bought my Sandberg off (the most excellent Mr Cougar, who I haven't seen on here in a long time... wonder where he went?) thought the coil tap switch was the active/passive, and got a right shock when I text him to let him know I'd found the push pull pot that actually did it!

Also in passive mode doesn't one of the EQ knobs become your passive tone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
