MTG - Mid-Scoop / Tone Switch (for guitar)
The MTG is a versatile dual-function control that operates as both a standard high-cut tone control and a specialized mid-scoop circuit. This allow you to dramatically expand your guitar's tonal palette without adding active electronics.
Quality Components & Construction
- Premium Push-Pull Potentiometer: Mounted on a high-quality 500K split-shaft push-pull pot designed for long-term reliability.
- Hand-Wired Precision: Every unit is professionally assembled using specialized components to ensure transparent operation in the neutral positions.
- Compact Design: Engineered to fit standard 3/8" mounting holes found on most guitars.
The Important Question: What does it sound like?
The dual-functionality provides two distinct modes of operation:
- Switch DOWN (Standard Tone): Functions exactly like a traditional treble-cut tone control.
- Switch UP (The Scoop): Becomes a specialized mid-scoop. As you rotate the knob counterclockwise (towards 0), midrange frequencies are pulled out to emphasize signature "bell-like" Stratocaster tones. Many players find settings between 2 and 3 perfect for "Mark Knopfler" style clean rhythms or achieving an acoustic-like quality.
Compatibility & Installation
- Universal Compatibility: Works on any guitar equipped with passive pickups.
- Simple 2-Wire Installation: Installation is straightforward. You will need a soldering iron to connect the white (hot) wire to your volume pot or output jack and the black (ground) wire to any ground point, typically the back of a pot.
- Fitment Note: Fits standard 3/8" shafts. While it fits most guitars, instruments with exceptionally thick tops (1/4" or more, such as some Les Paul models) may require minor modification.
