Howdy all...Was wondering if anyone has a suggestion about this.
I want to wire up 1 single coil w/ volume & tone, 1 under saddle piezo rod w/ volume & tone all tied into a master volume (no 3 way switch.)
This is as close as I've come

..but I want to eliminate the 3 way and wire into the master,,, I thought about both volume outs just going into the input pin on the master but wasn't sure if that would work..any ideas would be mega appreciated!
Thanks a million !

Ahh - got it!
Thanks a million Gents!
Have a look at Jabes' question up on the forum right now, I explained to him how to do em..
You can get one on eBay for a couple bucks..
I like a balance pot for my 'rhythm sound', this with a tone control, and a 'lead sound' which is just the bridge pickup, straight out, it's a very simple versatile circuit that people understand right away
Thanks Sir - I had thought about that - a little more precision with blending as opposed to the 3 way..I was a little intimidated how to wire it up (I'm a novice) but you gave a great explanation on Jabes' question
Thanks again
Go ahead and try it. Both volumes together would be like the center position of a three way switch. Your separate volumes should work independently.
However this diagram has a fatal flaw. Nothing is grounded. Ground each pickup to it's own volume pot. Run a ground from the volume pot to it's tone pot. Then run a ground from each tone pot to the master volume pot. Continue this ground to the bridge or strings. And run a ground from the master volume to the output jack.
(Otherwise turning one of em down to 5 will turn both down to 5, unless you pop a diode across each ground)
