I've always heard about people taking the complete harness out of there gibson ES345 and ES355 guitars because it sounds way better then with the varitone in position 1 which is supposed to bypass it completely!
and I listend to some clips on the net:

which clearly show a dramatic difference!
but when I look at the varitone schematic and the switch is in position 1 it looks to me that the varitone is totally bypassed!?
the choke is not connected and the 100k resistor is paralleled with the closed switch position 1, which takes it also out of work...
I'm struggling my mind around that one!?!?
