Can anyone tell me what the controls do exactly? There was no manual.
master volume, blend, bass +/-, treble +/-
mine's not available to check at this time but if you play around with the controls, you'll figure which is which.

actually, it is a flat top (took some getting used to). the CTS short shaft pots aren't quite long enough, I tried.

yes, there's a bridge ground. it was a thicker single strand, yellow insulated wire.

my son and I removed the bart pre from his LPB1 as it distorted all of the time, could not get a clean signal. we used long shaft 500k pots & 47mf caps. the bass sounds as expected. it's one of my favorites, great rock tone.

I bought an LPB-1 (TB+ pups) for my son years ago and the preamp was shot, so we converted to passive, 2V2T. iirc, we used 500k pots and .047 caps. sounds as expected.
