Thank you davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6276 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, February 29, 2008 - 4:58 pm:    If someone with a Persuader could open up the control cavity and get some pictures, I think that might help. Marlon got the vol, vol, filter controls off Ebay, and then he ordered some pickups and a Q switch from Mica. He's having this installed in a custom bass he's having made by a luthier he knows. But it's not immediately clear how the electronics go together. So we're hoping some pictures of Persuader electronics will help. texangerbil New Username: texangerbil Post Number: 10 Registered: 11-2007 Posted on Thursday, March 13, 2008 - 3:35 pm:    I have a Persuader (VVF) without Q switch. I'm hoping to add one myself shortly, so I hope someone can help out here... If photos without the Q switch would help point you in the right direction at all, just say and I'll put some up. mcrracer Junior Username: mcrracer Post Number: 16 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Thursday, March 13, 2008 - 3:42 pm:    Thanks, If you will post the pix I will be very grateful. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 5201 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Thursday, March 13, 2008 - 6:35 pm:    You can email me with your mailing address and I can send you the schematic. texangerbil Junior Username: texangerbil Post Number: 13 Registered: 11-2007 Posted on Friday, March 14, 2008 - 3:13 am:    Emboldened by my first successful picture upload, here goes with some more. Hope they're useful... The 2 volume pots each have a pickup connected to it by brown friction block. These are top (bridge) and right (neck) in the photos. Neck board has 2 captive leads to the bridge board (grey multicore and a single black). The filter board is the one with the blue/white trimpot on and this takes a 3-wire and a 2-wire friction block feed from the bridge volume. All the other wires (all from the bridge board + battery) go onto various points on the 4-connector jack switch. By the way, Mica, I notice an extra rout top left - would that be the position for the Q switch if fitted? or an extra pot? mcrracer Junior Username: mcrracer Post Number: 17 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Friday, March 14, 2008 - 4:13 am:    Thanks much! davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6344 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, March 14, 2008 - 8:08 am:    Nice pics Nigel; thanks! texangerbil Junior Username: texangerbil Post Number: 17 Registered: 11-2007 Posted on Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 2:51 am:    Glad to be of service!
