That is one interesting looking rig, Johnny. Out of curiosity, what do the all the controls on the 6-string neck surrounding the pickups do?

I’ve had a cheap Regal Sq neck reso and a Chandler 6str lap since 2004-5.
Now I’m the proud owner or a Stage One Encore for the last 10 days.
So far I’ve put in about 30 hrs and I can’t stop.
I’m hooked!
