This '91 American Standard that I got last week has one of those TBX controls on the middle & bridge pickups. I'm an old fashioned guy who always had regular old boring tone controls on my guitars.
What are your thoughts on this TBX tone control, with the detent at 5 (which is the same as a regular tone knob set to 10) and then (according to some,) cutting the bass and bringing out presence as you turn up higher than the detent, and (according to others) not cutting the bass but expanding the treble and the bass as you turn up higher than the detent?
I'm not sure I'll have a use for it but it's there and I'm unlikely to change it out anytime soon.
Speak to me, TGP.
