Description of Controls
The Air Force Bass includes three pickups, each with its own volume control and on/off switch.
•
Military Toggle Switch: The guitar will not operate unless this switch is in the “on” position. To
turn on, lift cover and flip the switch. To turn off, close the cover – closing the cover will return
the switch lever to the off position.
•
Volume Controls: The three larger knobs control the volume of each individual pickup. The
knob nearest the neck controls the pickup nearest the neck, etc.
•
Chrome Mini Toggle Switches: The three chrome mini toggle switches turn each individual
pickup on and off. The switch nearest the neck controls the pickup nearest the neck, etc.
•
Black Mini Toggle Switch: The black chrome mini toggle activates an onboard booster preamp
which increases the output of the bass. This is intended more as an effect, thus we consider the
“normal” setting to be “off”.
•
Small Gray Knobs: The smaller grayish knobs are master treble and bass controls. These
controls are “passive” which means they operate even when the preamp is off. The controls are
cut ‐ only meaning that the normal/flat setting is fully clockwise. Bass or treble boost can be
accomplished through pickup selection – favor the neck pickup for bass boost or favor the
bridge pickup for treble boost.
•
Recommended Settings: A wide variety of tonal options are available from this bass. We
recommend experimentation beginning with all controls fully clockwise, with preamp off and
with pickups off. Then, try each of the three pickups one at a time. Next try each of the four
possible combinations of pickups. Then, select one pickup combination and experiment with
each of the tone controls.
