I'm playing my HH and I'm getting confused on all the knobs. :confused:

They are seriously breaking my concentration. My eyes just keep wandering to them wondering what the hell they are for. Mommy.
 
Just try staring at the knobs. See them snarling. Keep your hands off they will bite.

:D

I am pretty sure they set them where they needed to be at the factory. :D

I like to turn all of them all over the place cuz it all sounds good, except I try not to turn the front one up much cuz it blows out windows. Don't be so upgtite. They are your knobs and you should diddle them all you want. It's all good with the knobs.

When I first got my Bongo, all the tuning keys were out of line. So I set them all parallel to the neck, and then the bass went out of tune. What is the factory setting for the tuning keys? Should I ship the whole thing back to SLO or just the neck? Also, I heard that the Master Tuning Key, the one on the other side of the headstock, should never be turned up all the way. How would I know when it's all the way?

I am pretty sure you voided your warranty by turning them. Better box it up and send it back.
