Question: EBMM Majesty Piezo stereo/mono switch

An old guitar dream has just been fulfilled as I received my brand new Majesty a few days ago – and what a great opportunity to join the EB forum! It’s not the latest model, but a beautiful 2015 EBMM JP Majesty with the Silver Lining finish and my first impression after only a few days is just “WOW!!” (I should have done this years ago…!). 😊 Just starting to get to know all the functions and settings on this beautiful thing and I’ve just might have found the guitar of my life here!

Before making the final decision to buy one of JP’s masterpieces, I did a LOT of research, reading/watching tons of reviews about the Majesty. And when I received my guitar there was one thing about the Piezo function that I couldn’t find any information about, and was hoping some of you might shed some light into. All the Majesty’s I’ve seen prior to my own has the stereo/mono switch in the Piezo volume knob on the front side, but on my 2015 model the switch is accessed through a small hole on the rear side, close to the Piezo EQ settings adjusts.

How come there two kinds of options for the Piezo switch?

Is the rear switch just found on older Majesty models or are there two different versions available? In all articles I’ve found about the Majesty, from 2019 and earlier, the stereo/mono switch is with the Piezo knob push option, and not on the rear side. I assume that the front option is the latest and newer version as it also has a Piezo stereo/mono status LED light, but what I DON’T understand is that I have found some guitars produced in 2014 that seems to have the mono/stereo switch in front and later models having the switch on the rear side. My guitar was produced in June 2015 and has the switch on the rear side. Was hoping some of you could provide some information about this.

This is not complaining and not a big deal at all for me in any way, but I am just curious what the story is about these two Piezo versions and couldn’t find any information when trying to Google it.

Merry Xmas, everyone!
