| The pots are probably master volume, pickup balance and master tone,
with the balance the one with the detent.
I suspect that the third position on the second switch is some sort of
booster...what does it sound like to you? 8^)

| It just sounds..... different. It has to be said the tonal variations
on this bass are enormous, but it staill has that Fender sound that I
love so much.

2676.3 | Could it be this? | JUPITR::DERRICOJ | Defy The Laws Of Tradition | Sat Feb 13 1993 01:43 | 29 |

Most likely, the configuration goes like this:
First stacked knob set:
Center - Master volume/passive volume
Outer - Pickup balance
Second Stacked knob set:
Center - Active bass (boost/cut)/Passive tone
Outer - Active treble (boost/cut)
Third control:
Four position switch:
1 - Active tone.
2 - Active with mid-boost.
3 - Passive tone.
4 - Standby
I haven't seen this one yet, but this would typically be the setup for
the Jazz Bass Plus, Jazz Bass Plus IV, Kubicki X-Factor on the 3-knob setup.

Oh... Also, they are probably using the Lace Sensor pickups...
As far as my last note goes, the settings are probably close - from memory.

2676.5 | Finally worked it all out... | WELCLU::GREENB | Daydream Nation | Thu Feb 25 1993 06:09 | 13 |
| Well, I figured it out -
Rotary 1 - Volume
Rotary 2 (with centre indent) - tone, works in active & passive modes
Rotary 3 - active tone, goes from really wiry to really deep.
3-position toggle switch 1 - pickup selection
3-position toggle switch 2 - passive/active/active with mid boost.
Truly a lovely bass, fits my smallish hands exactly, has a nice fast
action for when I need that, and a whole range of very useable sounds.
