Westone Thunder II active bass wiring diagrams
This
wiring diagram is taken from my 1982 (Version 1) Thunder II active
bass. It should also be suitable for the version 2 Thunder II active
bass, and the Thunder III - as far as I know the only difference
between the circuits for these guitars is that the later models have a
different pickup in the bridge position
The volume and passive tone pots are 500K log/audio, the active tone pot is 500K with a centre detent. The tone capacitor is 0.022 microfarad Mylar.
The active on/off and phase switches are DPDT mini toggle switches, the dual tone switch is a 4 pole changeover mini toggle.
