    If this was "my" guitar I might then use a three position blade switch to achieve some series or phase effects.

      I should have known better than to post past my bedtime.
      The jumper should be between switch terminals 4 & 5 (not 3 & 4), and the output taken from that junction.
      Corrected drawing attached.

        I kinda doubt that balancing the blend between 2 similar pickups will be all that useful- but it's what the "customer" asked for.
        Then again, I'm more of an acoustic kinda guy to begin with....

          Cheers rjb for the drawings and thanks Chuck for the pot ideas.

          I sat at my soldering iron a couple of nights ago to see what I could come up with. Having looked at rjb's drawings it turns out I was kind of on the right lines. That drawing is gonna help me ten-fold though so thanks again!!

          The reason I wanted to get rid of the tone controls is that I rarely use them. I love the sound of a humbucker at its fullest (if you get what I mean). 3 volume controls would get alot more use. And who doesn't love the sound of a volume swell. .
