Okay, I've decided that I'm going to go ahead and have the Duncans in the SL2H wired back to passive. Someone had installed an EMG Strat Presence Control (thanks again to Sunbane for identifying this) and I feel that it's muffling the tone a bit. I experimented by taking the battery out and the extra knob still adjusts the bass boost. I also compared it back to back tonight with an import Jackson with the Duncan Designed pups, plus a Fusion with an EMG 81. Those two sound more normal to me. The SL2H sounds like there's a tone control set roughly at about 50% and it lacks a touch of bite on leads.
Anyway.... as you can see here, there's an extra knob which currently controls the EMG-SPC:
My question is, can you recommend a use for that knob that I could have the tech wire it for? I can't think of anything and I'm leaning toward having him replace it with a kill switch (I did this on the Fusion, also). I like having a kill switch.
-OR-
I might have him wire the existing selector switch as a kill switch and replace the extra knob with a pickup selector toggle. I rarely switch to the neck pickup, anyway, so this would put the kill switch in a more convenient location.
So unless someone can suggest a cool use for that knob, it's going to be swapped with a kill switch or a pickup selector.
Thanks!
