Just one control knob? How does this guitar work?

The Rampage has no tone controls just a single volume. However the stock models were/are single pickup guitars, so perhaps this one eschewed pickup selection as well. Maybe G&L will provide an answer.

I checked the dealer's website and it is listed there. Here is the factory Specifications sheet:
The pot is a Volume push/pull pickup selector switch.

Keep coming back to look, this grabs my attention.
The sickle, the paint job, single knob and no plate neck are giving an 80’s flashback, but in a good way.

It looks like the kind of thing you either really love or really don't love. No judgement, just saying.

It's a Push/Pull pickup selector. Up is Neck, Down is Bridge.
This is directly taken from George Lynch's pickup configuration and control layout, which the guitar was heavily inspired by, hence the Tiger Stripe graphic I painted on it.

Thanks! That was very much the idea!

I figured we could make the world's 9,000,001st butterscotch Tele shape guitar, or I could do something fully unique. I chose the latter.
