blablas Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 Stacked bass/treble, midrange control with frequency range. For the exact details check [url="http://noll-electronic.de/bass-electronics/tcm-3-pm/"]Noll Electronic[/url]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowieBass Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Yeah I spotted the two dual concentric pots so I guessed you had Vol, Blend, Treble/Bass, Mid/Freq but I wasn't sure about the toggle switches (series/parallel, coil split maybe?)

blablas Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Done the last odds and ends of woodworking. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/3NUYfGv.jpg[/IMG] Extra chamber for the push/pull pot in the cavity lid. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/17pmKTi.jpg[/IMG] Finished the knobs (still need a few extra coats of oil). From now on it's only metal that's going to be worked on/with. Edited August 6, 2017 by blablas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blablas Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) Wiring is done. Everything worked the way it should and I want it to in one go, normally I have to work out some kinks before it does what's required by me.

HowieBass Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Good to see that it's all done apart from the setting up. Will this be the first 12 string bass you've owned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blablas Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Before setting up i still need to make the nut and make notches for the strings in the bridge saddles. Yes and also the first one I'll be playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blablas Posted June 20, 2015 Author Share Posted June 20, 2015 Setup and pictures is not going to happen this weekend, broke two strings a moment ago due to a brainfart, the high D should not be tuned to high G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
