Mr. Mom wrote:Aaaaannnnnd........The Blend is wired backwards. The mini toggle I ordered to be used for series/parallel/single coil was wrong so they used a three way mini toggle from the original preamp. Not only is the wiring wrong (I think they messed up the parallel and they hooked up the wrong coils for single coil mode) but the original mini toggle pops pretty loud when switched. Which will not win me any friends in the soundman community.
--Exactly what type of three way mini toggle should I order?
--Is it possible to have the inner coils "on" in single coil mode? Or does it have to be the outer coils?
--In single coil mode, does a faint signal come out of the coil that is "off"? IOW, I put the neck pickup in sc mode. I tapped on the neck coil (of the neck pickup) and there's a loud TAP TAP that came through. I then tapped on the bridge coil of the neck pickup and a got a faint tap tap. Faint, but audible. Should that be the case? Maybe the other coil is picking up the tapping? Does that make sense??
Anyway, other than that the pre sounds great! Seriously...It does! And to my ear the pickups sound better in passive mode, too, with the Aggy pre installed.
WTF did the tech do??
It's definitely going back and it'll get done right, but man...Is this really that hard of a job to do?
