I've used this to overcome the uselessness of the tone knob on my passive fender. Has 16 capacitors to give you 16 gorgeous tones. I like it so much I'm gonna get the onboard version installed in my bass.
I actually use this little gadget, much more than any pedal I've had. It's the bass version, like new.

ToneStyler BASS and Micro Pedal II BASS
The ToneStyler BASS™ is the lowest-voiced version of the original ToneStyler ®. This unique control shifts the pickup’s resonant frequency and adjusts the treble roll-off point in sixteen 0.44 octave steps. Works with all passive bass pickups - no batteries required! 100% pure analog tone – ZERO noise – aerospace grade construction and components. Maximum capacitance value: .1µF
The EQ range of the ToneStyler BASS has been extended two octaves lower than the ToneStyler STD, which provides additional resonance selections in the upper bass & low midrange harmonics. The BASS model is ideal for shaping & enhancing the pickup response in all passive bass guitars.

105 shipped  | Wait! Can't this item be disassembled, stripped of it's outer casing, then installed in your bass? Or is the shaft diameter all wrong. Or?
Regardless, I'm semi-interested. Let me know.

Regardless, I'm semi-interested. Let me know. | I'd be very surprised if this was not the onboard version stuck in a box, but I don't know for sure. Hell maybe I should try to pull it out and install it.
Cool thing about this is you can switch it between multiple basses...but I'd still just rather have it onboard so I don't have to mess with extra cables, etc. I've become a one-bass guy for the most part,I bought the pedal version to try it out without performing bass surgery. It's a small miracle, I'm ready to just have it installed permanently. |

I'm thinking this unit is similar to the 4-position rotary control Villex has for his passive bass and ERB applications. Further tweaks are obtainable with his standard mid-boost/cut rotary pot controls.
If I have the opportunity for another ERB custom build, I may well elect to have the on-board version of this installed. Good luck!

I sold all my pedals. I kept this  |
