Anyone recognize this harness? The neck pickup has a filter switch and there's a resistor in series with the bridge pickup.

The only guitar in the 1973-1975 range with such outline of the parts was the S-100. Hans would probably know what those added parts are and if they are factory or not. Also there seems to be a name engraved on the pickup? And I see two times 74 on that one.

With that model toggle and the wiring so short I’d think S100. Is the mini toggle not a phase switch?

It's filter switch. There's a cap wired to it. Looks factory to me.

I believe that it originally may have been a harness for a bass with two HB-1s attached to it!
That makes sense! I didn't make that connection to a bass because I thought the HB-1s were original on that harness. But yes, looks like a JS 2 bass harness. This below has 1973 and 1974 pots:

That's it! I was thinking a bass harness too but the HB1s confused me. Thanks Hans and Ralf.
