Nope, you are right.

 

Bass, treble and centre have a detent in the middle which is the mid way - so one side of the detent is cut and one side of the detent for all of those controls. The other one is the mid frequency, which as you say has no centre position, so this is right. That one being the bottom of the 3rd knob from the neck end.

Thanks again for confirming this for me.  It's just one of those mindless niggly things that was driving me crazy while completely not affecting the function of the bass!!

can go back to actually concentrating on the music now  🙂

Hi, Welcome. I’m originally from NSW but I’ve been living in the UK off and on since I was 7. Nice to have another antipodean on here!

 

Trying to remember the layout on my EHB1000S (let it go a few months back). I think you are referring to the mids control, in which case, there wasn’t a detent on the sweep part (lower part of the control stack). That makes sense, as it would be difficult to decide on a factory default frequency range.

 

You watch , somebody will correct me😏. 
 

Enjoy anyway. Great little bass. Only let go of mine to help fund a Nordstrand Acononyx.

Thanks for confirming that and that makes sense.  The Nordstrand Acononyx looks lovely!  

Hey all, first post here all the way from Australia!

Got hold of the EHB1000s back in August and I'm loving it so far.  The range of sounds is great and I was pretty happy with the build quality.  Setup was spot on for intonation and action was comfortable straight out of the box.  

I've since put on flat wounds and they feel and sound great.  Possible to get decent slap and pop with some tweaks to the EQ even with the flat wounds. 

One thing is driving me crazy over the last few days though.  The EQ pot that is in line with passive/active switch (as opposed to the EQ pot that is in line with the pickup blend and volume pots) does not appear to have a detent on the lower section of the pot.  The smaller upper pot has a detent.    I can't remember if it started out having a detent on the bottom pot or not.  The pot works fine just a little annoyting for there not to have a detent when it looks like it should be a pot with a detent.

Can any owners confirm if all the EQ pots have a centre detent position?  TIA.

Overall though very happy with the playability and sound of the bass.

cheers!
