dip switches in Schecter stiletto custom 5.
 
Anyone know what the dip switches on my Stiletto custom 5 are for? It has passive p/u w/active EQ. There are 3 dip switches on one of the pots inside the back cover.

IIRC, they shift the frequency for the treble control...

No prob, bud - I actually had a couple of their basses with that setup: a Stiletto Elite-5 and a Hellraiser 4... I wasn't impressed with the Stiletto, but miss the Hellraiser - I really liked it, and it was a fan favorite, but I got an offer I couldn't refuse - and down the road it went...

i really like the feel of the stiletto. thinkin about swapping in a set of bartolinis. love the color and finish on my, its vampyr red.

Yeah, I think I got a dog - any manufacturer will put out one occasionally... Mine wasn't particularly a great player - and kinda disappeared in a band mix, whereas my Hellraiser 4 played great, and didn't disappear in a band mix...

I have that same bass and I wasn't impressed with the stock pups. A set of EMG DCs really helped.
