FGW is a very reasonable dealer to work with btw - I've ordered a few guitars from them new (all previously through Reverb)

Also, the color (which I wasn't crazy about from the online photos) is actually a bit darker in person, with some gray mixed in.

"This is a result of how this model is wired and is normal. You'll notice the signal muted in position 1 with the volume pot pulled up. Because the function is putting two pickups in either series/parallel or the two pickups in-phase/out-of-phase, these controls only function when in position 2 where both pickups are active. We do not recommend pulling the volume knob up in any other position, as you have noticed it will cut the volume."
From a different perspective, this can be seen as a bonus feature as it can act as a kill switch a la Eddie Van Halen, Tom Morello, Jonny Greenwood, etc. as shown in this review:

After receiving it, the only thing I needed to do was to adjust the saddle heights and do a minor intonation, the neck needed no adjustment. Fret edges overall are smooth, and very happy with the tones from both pickups.
.
At $270 with the code, IMO it is still a good deal.
