I'm glad I'm not the only one Chris. I use it as a master tone, but it's use really comes into its own when you are using different gtrs in a live set up. Instead of having to go to the amp & change the tone controls, a quick dial of the 5th knob & you're sorted. It really does make it easy to balance different gtrs through the same rig on the same night!

The 5th knob is just an additional volume control for the bass (neck) pickup.

I have a 340, I usually have all 3 pickups on, and the the 5th control is the only one I ever adjust, all others are maxxed.
