Right, exactly a month ’til bonus time again and I actually want to get this sorted this year 🙄

This is a very basic layout (not schematic) of what I want on the front of the bass, hopefully my solder-monkey will know what resisitors/caps etc etc I need if any and where…

The design basically came from watching my own playing style I use the knobs as on/off switches and control tone with attack/hand position. Furthermore, I have a tendency to hit the split Pup’s knob when I get excited 😳 So I plan to leave the front-most hole empty/blanked.

I want a 3-way switch a la Les Paul and a really low-profile volume knob which you have to make a concious effort to adjust, in an Ideal world I wouldn’t have one at all but I think it may be useful for on-the-fly tweaks (I’ve never yet played at the same level in a sound-check as I do in the actual gig 🙄 )

I’m thinking of getting the Alnico Kent Armstrong Split and matching Jazz. The rest will probably be Switchcraft stuff, should be about £100 all in I reckon.

Any thought’s or opinions before I go for it…?

Oh, and I’m looking at a split-Pup cover (in black, obviously) too. And I still use Overwater stainless flats.

Thanks for trawling through all that! Tim.
