Tone control on 7DBK

[DJo_666]

I've recently acquired my first Jem (a '99 7DBK) and I have a concern with its tone control. My experience is based on a '91 JS1, and the tone control on the Jem is very different. Backed off all the way, the tone control on the Jem cuts the volume to zero. It also does not seem to evenly cut the high end the way the tone control on my JS does.

I really don't want to take the guitar apart again (I did this when it arrived), so if this is an obvious problem that someone has seen before please let me know. Thanks!

Perhaps it's been wired wrong, modified in a way, assuming it is the tone control and not the volume. Whip the pickguard off and have a look.
