Thanks for that Ted it was just the sort of thing I was looking for.
Is there a reason the piezo pickups are not run through the tone pot and in your opinion would it be ok to use 250k pots?
Once again many thanks Mark
Thanks for the info
Yes it is possible - lots of info in this old discussion
http://www.cigarboxnation.com/forum/topics/using-piezos-and-magneti...
and an old video comparing piezo/magnetic with and without a preamp.

Also you can use a blend pot to give some variation to the piezo/magnetic ratio in the output. (A link to how to wire 2 pickups via a blend pot is within this discussion http://www.cigarboxnation.com/group/cbgwiringelectronics/forum/topi...).
Thanks for that David think I'll give it a try!
