u sure those are enough controls? adjust ur vol, blend, highs, mids, lows, heart rate, blood pressure, etc. lol
Actually it's not as complex as it looks. Total of 8 knobs. 1 master volume, 1 neck pickup volume, 1 bridge pick up volume. So that leaves 5 more.
1 is an on/off/ pickup selector. So there are really only 4 knobs for tone shaping. 2 for each pickup. 1 sets the central boosting frequency for the low pass filter, the other sets the amount of boost. Arguably, those could be stacked.
On the other hand, anything that needs 2 paragraphs to explain.........
By comparison, the Roscoe that's shown in the same picture LOOKS like it only has 4 knobs, but one is stacked, so that's 2 controls, and another is a push pull, so that's 2 controls. Now that's a total of 6 control points and only one of them controls volume, so 5 different tone controls. The Alembic has 4 tone controls.
Different approaches.
