There are two kind of switches in my guitar , one for changing the magnets and one other that i can't figure out his excact use!It makes the sound more clear/noisy but not too much(like distortion). Does anyone knows the name and the use o the effect? Thank you in advance! If u see the photo it is on the bottom between volume and tone! Attached to this post: evo_ft.jpg (12.19 KB)

So although the guitar has humbuckers, you can select to "split" them so they only use one of the coils thus creating a single coil tone.. obviously the humbuckers will be the louder clearer sounding and the single coil setting will be slightly more noise but more twangy.
