I am curious how others are enjoying the S1 switching? I fing the diversity in tone fantastic. You can really appreciate the variations when playing in band/live environment, some of these tones just cut through a mix beautifully. Anyone else have similar experinces?

My first post here. Woo hoo!

My favorite S-1 feature is the fact that it's invisible on the surface. Yeah, it's nice having some of those tonal options but it's even nicer that it's easy to use. Honestly of the 10 tones available I only really use about 4-6 of them but they do provide nice variety. And while it may look like electrical spaghetti under the hood, the fact that it's so far been reliable and useful for 2.5 years is great.

I've got S1 on one of my Strats and I really enjoy it. Can see a downside unless it stops working. Then I gotta figure out how to fix it.

S-1 switching on a P-bass is pointless.

I have an American Deluxe and I have the S-1 switching. I love the additional five tones it gives. And with the tone knobs, and going through pedals, the tones you can get are almost limitless.

got s1 on my baja tele. Love the parallel/series options but when the neck pickups out of phase it just sounds harsh.
