About Riboloff T-DA Smart Tone pot which activates coil splitting

For the Shijie PDS S246 model guitar uses Riboloff dual element 11 detent Tone Control. This tone control offers extra bright tone not normally available with just a twist of the tone knob. When the tone knob is turned full up to last detent, this knob position splits the coils on both humbuckers. This full up tone knob position also by-passes the tone circuit making this position even brighter.

When rotating the knob 1 detent down towards 0 both pickups return to full humbucking mode. The tone circuit is also engaged. Rotating the knob further towards 0 one detent at a time yoi can notice the tone getting darker as expected with normal passive guitar tone controls.

The pickup selector works as normal 3 way pickup selector whether in humbucker or single coil mode. When pickup selector, selects both single coils to be engaged they are hum caneling in this position.
