Nice bass. Curious what the controls and switch all do.

I had it in my head that the switch was for pick up selection but why have 3 controls ? Volume, Pan, Tone ? but if a pan you wouldn't need the switch. ?

Just curious. 🤩

I’d imagine 2 volume, 1 tone. 
When both pups are on (toggle in the middle position) you can control the volume of each pup? 

[Dood]

The controls are indeed Volume, Volume, Tone The latter being of the TBX variety with a centre click. (My Power Jazz Bass Specials had them too)

I so wish I were in a position to buy @Adee!

It’s positively drool in’ over this.

Just like the one I had, apart from the badass bridge.

Mine had the black neck to match the body

These are sooooo good.

 

3 of them have passed thru my hands over the years - Metallic Red, Pearl White and Black.

 

Loved every one of them.
