darkandrew Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I was just wondering how you like your knobs? For example, if you have a blend or active tone knob with a centre indent, do you like it so that the marker (if it has one) is in the up position, down position, at an angle facing you, or some other position when at that centre position?. Similarly where do you like the marker to point at max/min volume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) I'm used to mine. As I look at the bass whilst playing it: - EQ Knobs: max is 11, midway is 6 and min is 1 - Pup blend: neck pup is 11, 50/50 is 6 and bridge pup is 1 No angles, just straight up, perpendicular to the neck.

I suppose 6 o'clock as the centre position makes sense for the indented ones, however it's the volume knobs that aren't so straight forward - I guess (looking down at the bass) 11 o'clock for max and 1 o'clock for minimum also makes sense. I wonder if this is the most common way of having it? I know it really makes no difference, just a little OCD kicking in I suppose.

Roland Rock Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Yes, the volume knob is that way too, on the bass with markers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffbyrne Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 On my basses I've fixed it that those with an indent face exactly toward me, and those without indent max out exactly toward me - (6 o'clock?). G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
