What kind of switching options do you want? there are many ways to skin a cat but there are more ways than that to wire a guitar.. Visit the ibanez website for wiring diagrams if it is something simple you want. for more customised switching options,you should contact the pickup brand's customer care...for example,when i bought Dimarzios for my Ibanez,i emailed dimarzio and they replied within 24 hours with a pic of the correct wiring.
No question what to do... take it in under warranty since it is new !!!
You may find that there is a problem with your amp... the seller should be able to test the guitar and demonstrate normal sound for you.
Many users have TOO small of an amp and the distortions make it appear that the guitar is bad... I suspect you will want at least a 12 inch speaker and preferably a 15 inch for your bass.
When low frequency signals drive a speaker too hard it drives the voicecoil out of the linear range and the sound will be irregular..
Assuming that the amplifier is functioning properly, I suspect that the problem is either in the cord, the plug socket on the bass, or the volume control potentiometer. First, I would try another cord that is known to be in good condition (ALWAYS plug the cord into the instrument FIRST). Second, carefully remove the cord receptacle plug from the bass and examine the solder joints (check for loose wires). Third, carefully remove the plate that holds the volume and tone pots. Examine these controls for loose wires or faulty solder joints. CAUTION: If solder joints are found to be the culprit, care must be taken to correct this problem. If too much heat enters the pot, it can be ruined!
