How about that?  No toggle switch!  Is that single knob in the lower bout a master volume or a pickup selector?  Are those two knobs two volume pots, or a volume pot and tone pot?
I wish to propose a doctrine which may, I fear, appear wildly paradoxical and subversive. The doctrine in question is this: that it is undesirable to believe a proposition when there is no ground whatever for supposing it true. - Bertrand Russell

no idea...I think it would be a tone control...and then you'd have the two pickup volumes so you can mix the sounds...

this is just a guess though.


god I adore them old Gibson archtops  :-*
