Pedalpcb ocelot onboard a 5 string bass

[Locrian99]

So I had a person approach recently about putting an ocelot into his 5 string bass. So he could just flip a switch and control the direct and octave 1 from a concentric pot mounted on board. He had changed the wiring already so he had 2 open control holes. Already was active so just splice into the battery and switching ground set up from the trs. Really worked out quite nicely. And the board is a perfect fit.

So he has a two volume and a passive tone setup. And now a direct and Oct 1 control on the red ink. With a dpdt to turn the ocelot on and off. Haven’t let him know it’s done yet because I am trying to find a better washer for the switch.

I like the cut of this guy's jib.

Alright what’s a jib

I have no idea. Sounds related to sailing.

Edit: Just looked it up, turns out I DID have an idea.

I’d put a dress nut on the switch and pry off the hanging tab. Cool idea!

Yea I was having a hell of a time getting that hanging tab off. Good suggestion.
