I have a D8 from 56 but thinking of acquiring a T8 from 58. On neck 1 there are volume and tone controls. On neck 2, there are two switches. I assume 1 switches between the 3 necks. What does the other one do?
Sorry for the newbie question, thanks in advance!

Re: T8 Stringmaster question
It bypasses the selector switch and makes all three necks on and in parallel. It makes for a thinner, scooped tone.
