What is better known as the "Baxandall" tone stack is also called the James tonestack.

This tonestack fixes midrange frequencies at a "middle" volume level.

This is done for few reasons:

  • First, and likely most importantly: Cost. Fewer tone controls cost a manufacturer less.
  • Second, simplification of the tone stack with only bass and treble controls makes the tonestack simpler to modify by musicians.
  • Third, Baxandall tonestacks, by many musicians, are simply described as "sounding good".

(Pictures will go a long way towards describing how this tonestack works. We'll have to create them and post them for helping provide the best explanation.)
