Anyone have any idea what this knob and switch do??

Already been linked and stated: Google the manual. That's one of the amazing attributes about living in 2021…..you can find everything on the World Wide Web.
When I went to college, the www was not available. We had to actually walk to the library, otherwise known as "the stacks", to physically look through a huge file system called the "card catalogue" to find what we needed for our research projects. Once we found what we were looking for, we had to follow the code on the card to actually walk to the specific part of the library where the information was stored, pinpoint the document(s), book, periodical, etc., pull it off the shelf, then actually open it and read it. We used a utensil called a pen to write,in cursive, onto pieces of paper the information we needed from the book,document, periodical, etc. After gathering all of the information needed for our research paper, many times from multiple trips to the card catalogue and back to the "stacks", we went back to our dorm and rewrote our papers by typing them with a tool called a "typewriter". A typewriter was like a printer, but it didn't have ink…..it had something call a "ribbon" and these hard metal things with letters on them smacked the tape and printed a letter into the paper………that's some weird stuff, huh!!! Some of the fancy electric typewriters even allowed you to correct typing errors, but only if you hadn't already hit "return"to start another line of text. Don't ask how we corrected previous errors after hitting the return key……it was a NIGHTMARE!!!!! Yeeeaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!
Enjoy the Google. Be the Google. Live the Google! Look up EVERYTHING on the Google!!!!!
That's a cool bass. Enjoy it!

Thanks! I've wondered the same about my SR805am.

Too many choices for me. Played it today, set the knobs neutral and all was good. Great bass.
My amps also have too many knobs. One actually has ten knobs and a half dozen buttons. Don't need 'em lol.

Pffff ok boomer xD

No I totally get you, if you try to Google the manual, the manual for a different model comes up. For some reason, there are 2 very different bass guitars that are called Soundgear SR-750, and mine is the uncommon one. Hence the post

Young people have no respect for anyone, listen to music that is stolen from the past, think they invented sex, wear ridiculous clothes, and think they are entitled to everything.

This statement has been said by me, my father, my grandfather, his father etc etc etc all the way back to Ug the cave-dweller in the Palaeolithic. Who by the way created a better wheel than his dad. But his dad invented the wheel.
