Action measurements are taken in 64th's of an inch, and are calculated from the top of the 12th fret to the underside of the string. GBME sets the action on all instruments at the factory for optimum playability. This can be achieved by adjusting the bridge studs (See Tune-o-matic Bridge). [. . . ] Tone Controls The tone controls on all models are "Treble Cut" controls. This means that as you turn the knob counter-clockwise you reduce the treble output of that pickup and produce a darker tone. This means that the pickup's full range of harmonic frequencies is being passed on to your amplifier. Selector Switch The selector switch permits you to turn pickups on and off. On most guitars with two pickups, the middle position turns both pickups on. When the switch is "up" only the neck or "rhythm" pickup is turned on. When the switch is "down" only the bridge or "treble" pickup is turned on. 7 Control Layouts (one pickup, one volume, one tone) Open-coil humbucking pickup Master volume Master tone 8 Control Layouts (two pickups, one volume, one tone and pickup selector) Neck pickup (rhythm) Bridge pickup (treble) Volume control Pickup selector switch Up-rhythm Middle-both Down-treble Tone control 9 Control Layouts (two pickups, two volume, two tone and pickup selector) Pickup selector switch Up-rhythm Middle-both Down-treble Neck pickup (rhythm) Bridge pickup (treble) Bridge pickup volume (treble) Neck pickup volume (rhythm) Bridge pickup tone (treble) Neck pickup tone (rhythm) 10 Thank you for choosing GBME -- Part of the Gibson/Baldwin Family of Brands As you can see, we've put a lot into every GBME instrument so that you can get a lot out of it -- night after night. . .

Modern Jazz in Green Glitter Finish 27 28 New Standard in Black Pearl Finish There are lots of rock and roll guitars, but when it comes to the reckless, screaming, dive-bomb sounds of hard rock, Kramer is the origin ­ the source. Through the 1980s, thanks in a large part to Edward Van Halen, no guitar played a more important role in the advancement of hard rock music than Kramer. The original Kramer company, founded in 1975 in Neptune, New Jersey, had a short but stellar run, ending in bankruptcy in 1989. Attempts to restart the company failed until 1997, when Kramer joined the Gibson family. [. . . ]
