Is there something I am missing with a master control tone switch on this 2016 Heritage? The neck tone knob pot actually controls the volume, not sure what the volume knob is doing. Not something I have ever experienced before, seller mentioned master switch of some sort...Can't get to the luthier until Monday afternoon. Thank you for any input. Bridge control knobs work in the same way every other guitar I've owned.

Hmm… not entirely sure if I follow what’s going on. If you want, post some pictures of the wiring in the control cavity. Sounds like they got something wired oddly. 
 

I mean, with 50’s style wiring, tone control will also have some impact/interaction with volume… but guessing what’s happening here is more drastic than that. Especially with you saying that bridge controls operate as expected.

Agree with the above post, sounds like someone had something done to rewire the controls..

on my 535 it’s two volume and two tones and they are specific to each pickup, as are the volume knobs

You have some bad magic going on there.  Wait and see what the guitar tech says.
