I've always loved the look of these beasts and had big cravings for one but I have one question...

What are mortal men like me supposed to do with the twin output sockets? Can one of the outputs be used as a conventional socket where you can mix outputs or do you have to switch sockets for different sounds?

The "P" volume contol (nearest the sockets) has a "push-to-make/push-to-break" switch.
When it's "UP" the outputs are combined- It doesn't matter which socket you use. The two volumes work like a Jazz Bass.
When it's "DOWN" the outputs are specific to each pick-up.

Using them separately has its benefits. It's good in the studio. Keeping the Neck HB central in the mix, thin out the "P" a bit and pan it L-R, for example.

At home, try running FX on the "P" and leaving the HB dry. Mix the wet & dry signals before they hit the amp. That works live, too.

Live, I doubt most soundmen will bother to let you have 2 or 3 channels of the desk for bass alone, even if you take 3 heads, 6 cabs and a stereo chorus/flanger/delay (plus the roadies to shift it all!). I just use it with the outputs combined!

I like what looks like the black pearl scratchplate on the black one in the link.

I'm not posting any more pics of mine!
Y'all must be sick of the sight of it by now! :)
