L-6S Custom

THIS SIX POSITION CONTROL regulates the choice and blend of coils in the new design Gibson Super Humbucking Pickups. Each position will offer unique tonal values when combined with the midrange and tone controls. Position 1 Both pickups, in series, in phase (wiring in series results in a bit more high end bite). Position 2 Activates the front pickup only. Position 3 Activates both pickups in a parallel, in phase configuration. Position 4 Activates both pickups, parallel out of phase for a "dirty" type tonality. Position 5 Activates the back pickup only for the maximum in treble response. Position 6 Activates both pickups in series out of phase. MASTER VOLUME CONTROL The master volume control regulates the signal output of both pickups. MIDRANGE CONTROL To add midrange response, turn the control clockwise. Position 10 will offer maximum midrange response. TONE CONTROL The tone control regulates the treble and bass tonalities. Position 10 will offer maximum treble response. Position 0 will offer minimum response.
