The bridge pickup has been rewound. The guitar has its original wiring scheme with blend control instead of tone control. In the bridge position, rolling back the blend pot adds in the neck pickup. In the middle position, the blend pot is bypassed and signal only comes from the neck pickup. In the forward position, signal comes from the neck pickup as well but with a preset \"deep\" sound. This produces a sound similar to a rolled back tone pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickup Measurements\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bridge: 7.5k Neck: 7.1k\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware\u003c\/strong\u003e: Original tuners, string tree, nut, pickguard, bridge, bridge cover, and saddles.
