sjaguar13 Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 On Eddie Van Halen's black and white guitar, was there just one volume pot, or one tone pot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjaguar13 Posted August 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 im not an evh expert, but im pretty sure its a volume...... That's what I thought, too, but the only picture I can find that clearly shows the pickguard has a tone knob. I was just wondering if it was a volume pot and the tone knob was just used, or if it really was a tone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalo1022 Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 ya it was a volume knob thats how he did the "swell" effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 It must have been a volume knob. it's far more important than a tone knob when playing live, especially if his singature sound was his guitar and effects already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapbarstrat Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 of course it's a vol pot, that he just put a knob on that says 'tone'. I didn't know he did that, and I happened to do the exact same thing. I played with this bass player who was a cop, and he gave me a hard time about it, trying to say I was a VH wannabe.
