    The ASS haven't got that little black box and the EQ adjustment can not be done without removing the back plate.

    I already started a thread maybe a year ago about that to get an official explanation why there is different preamp and why some guitars have the toggle switch (ASS, JP, LUKE) and the others haven't got (Silhouette, AL, Silhouette Special)

    Now I could be wrong but I understand that the ASS was the first one to be Piezo equipped and the others took advantage of the JP enhancement

    I still don't understand why some have the switch (mag, both, Piezo) and why some haven't got it. I'm just very curious
    Some more info would be awsome if we could get it. This is the first time time I hear the term JP enhancement.

    excuse me I'm just French

    It might not be an enhancement but more an improvement and a smaller/optimized circuit

    I hear you man. I kind of like the fact that when you look a the back of the ASS there is wood instead of the box. But it is all about the tone right.
