Ah, yes, good catch.

Mayo- you mean the little black circular thing on the underside of the pick guard (like in the bottom left of this picture)?

If so, that is the "Silent Circuit". It's there to reduce hum from the single coils. It's been set from the factory, but can be adjusted to remove as much hum as possible.

Great job again, Jason - I guess this nails the question.

Cheers
