Just wanted to throw a PSA out there about the G&L PTB control set.
I have it on my HH Strat but had never tried it on a dual volume guitar. I took the Epi to the lab tonight and it’s a resounding success.
Essentially it’s a master tone, wired 50s style and a bass cut control. With the bass cut turned up, you can get fat single coil type tones.
Here is the diagram I followed, with the exception that I reversed both controls, i.e. as shown the treble control works backwards and I wanted the bass cut to cut bass as I turned up:
Treble is the master tone and bass cut on zero is normal tone control state. Notice it’s still wired 50s style because it’s connected to the output.
