Piezo, Humbucker, Blend and Volume help

Hi guys


Does anyone know how to go about wiring a piezo, humbucker, volume pot and a blend pot together?

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hi Penfoot,

The blend pot diagram can be found here http://www.stewmac.com/freeinfo/Electronics/Pots/i-4137.html I usually use the top one.

To add a volume you take the output from the blend and wire this into the normal volume control pot

If you need more help please ask.

Regards,

David

I have done some looking around, and couldn't find anything for this, so pieced it together a bit, so can I just check with you guys that this circuit should work?

(Sorry about the colours, I'm colour blind and only after making the image did I realise I had got the red and green confused :L )
