John East Uni-Pre 4K Active Preamp Controls:
Volume Knob sets the output level for both active and passive paths
The Blend Knob sets both the active and passive blend mix for the pickups: ACW for bridge pickup alone and CW for the neck pickup alone. A click midway gives an equal mix of both pickups if they are balanced. Internal Gain Trims, 0-12dBs, allow the pickup levels to be adjusted and/or matched
Bass Boost/Cut or Boost only – set according to Jumper Link on circuit board. Controls the level of low end content according to the 'Bass Window' settings on the circuit board. A center click is included
Treble (Pull for Bright)/Cut knob, controls the higher frequency spectrum according to the setting of the internal Treble Shelf Frequency adjustment. Pull for Bright adds 'high end sizzle' sheen. A neutral setting is provided with a center click
Mid controls the level of Mid Boost/Cut at frequencies according to the setting of the Mid Frequency knob. A neutral setting is provided with a center click on the upper Boost/Cut knob
Tone Roll-off, set CW for no effect. Adjust ACW in order to mellow the treble and fully backed off for the 'darkest' sound. Push-pull toggle switch, pull for the Passive Signal path which consists of the Volume, Blend and Passive Tone. Push in for the full Active Signal path
AC RFB Humbucker:
This hum cancelling pickup uses coils which are rotated through 90 degrees with magnets inside them placed against a single blade of steel running the length of the pickup. This gives the advantage of hum cancelling while still maintaining the narrow magnetic aperture of a single coil. The bridge and neck versions have different gauges of wire and number of turns giving added versatility to the sounds you can get from your ACG bass. The RFB Pickups represent a more open, high fidelity tone giving a great balance throughout the register of the bass guitar.
AC PB Split Coil:
The PB split coil in the neck position delivers that iconic Precision Bass warmth and punch.
