I apologize for another stupid question. Where is the volume knob on this guitar?

I apologize for another stupid question. Where is the volume knob on this guitar?

the tone knob IS the volume knob, in fact you have no tone knob

WOW is that beautiful!!! The birdseye on the neck from what little I saw looks like it must be killer!

Really nice looking EVH there. Also, congratulations on the kid.... make sure he doesn't grow up to be a drummer.

Congrats on the new baby, best wishes!

Nice HoneyBurst! I need your camera, my HoneyBurst pics look like ClownBurst: bright yellow gradually fading into bright red

My family appreciates the well wishes. Nice to be able to share with everyone!

The pics were taken with HTC Droid Smart Phone from Verizon. I just used the PC picture mode so they are smaller. I had to email them to my pc, so I could upload them to the Forum.

Smart phone users, if there is a better way, please let me know !!

Now, Brett's picture is wayyyyyyyyy better.

One more question about that guitar, which by the way is very cool. If there is no tone knob, I assume that knob is the volume. If not, why does it say TONE? I am guessing the silver knob is the switch between pickups which would give the different tones. Oh and congrats on the baby as well.

 

[tommydude]

Below that Tone knob is an actual Volume pot.

If my memory serves me correctly, the Tone knob was a joke by EVH related to his Frankenstrat.

A more knowledgable Forumite can confirm this for us.

The silver switch is the regular Toggle Switch that allows you to select the specific pickup(s) you want to use.....Bridge/ Bridge + Rhythm / Rhythm.

Nice! Congrats!

Wow talk about having a good streak of fortune! Biggest congrats for the birth of your boy Tommy, do not know if it is your first but nothing can top that. Now in the material world a great congrats on a killer guitar, and your dealings with two class guys Rich and Brett.

This is my first child. A whole new experience and life changing event. I am glad that I practiced a lot prior to the baby being born. LOL

Now, to start saving for that amp.....(entirely different thread started already about that topic).
