Not so fast folks, I have returned and am still grateful for your help.
Sorry for the lack of posting and for a follow up response to your helpful comments, as I haven't checked in here in a while, but the fact is the best laid plans of mice and men...yada yada. I simply have had zero time to work on the bass, let alone chat on forums. I attribute this primarily to the birth of my son in March and a complete lack of time, resources, and energy, LOL.
I'm slowly figuring out out to improve my time management, so I hope to be involved more in the days/months ahead. Restoring the Pilot is on my to do list (along with installing Darkstars on my B-302), so hopefully I'll get to it within the next few weeks.
Thanks again

Hello all, been a while
I do know the answer to this as I had the same mystery issue and had to fix some mystery loose wires on my Pilot 902
The Guild Pilot SB902 has the bartolimi TCT pre amp which has bass and treble boost. but it is not fitted with the optional mct-500 mid boost unit offered by Bartolini.
The small trim pot located in the cavaity is the mid control unit , but it only offers mid cut.
See Bartolini web site for TCT unit and look at wiring diagram option 4. ( they show a stacked treble, bass pot but ignore this as it is the pilot layout but the pilot has separate bass and treble knobs). This is the only schematic with the trim pot seen in the picyure above.
I have heard that some pilots were fitted with TBT units but if yours has yellow white blue green red and brown wires it is a TCT.
