Brother Jones Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 What's the control layout? One of the pots looks stacked, so perhaps vol/tone, and a pan pot? Thanks. 1

Thanks. Expand 2 volumes, one for each pickup, no tone control. Takes a bit of getting used to but you can coax some nice tones. Its almost my favourite bass. 1

Thanks. Expand Hi! Here are the controls: - Stacked volume knobs for the neck (top) and bridge (bottom) pickups - Tone control knob Also, you click on the above hyperlink (on my topmost post) for the YT video of the specs... alternatively, here’s the link: 1
KevL Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Very nice, I like it. Last year of the 3-bolt necks, still has a lot of the old G&L character before they became, for me, a bit too generic. Very reasonable price, too; good luck with a sale. 1
gyrus Posted January 24, 2021 Author Posted January 24, 2021 A weekend bump for such a reliable workhorse 👍
