PBT schematic

Post by the_bright_undead »

Lookin’ for a schematic for something a bit unusual- I have a dual humbucker tele with a Les Paul-style 3-way switch, and traditional tele-style master volume/master tone pots.

I’d like to replace the tone pot with a stacked / concentric dual potentiometer that functions as a 2-band EQ similar to a G&L or Reverend guitar (with both passive bass and treble controls). I don’t want to go for a three-knob control plate, would strongly prefer to keep it at two knobs with the tone being two stacked pots.

Anybody got any tips on where to find a good wiring diagram for this? I’ve been looking around but keep getting stumped with pot and cap values, I’m pretty sure the bass needs a 1meg pot but not sure if I can keep the other two at 500K. Totally unsure about the capacitors.

If anybody has a suggestion I’m all ears.
good dealings: laowiz, ianmarks, stomping stones, weebles, Errant Tiger, radish, themeanreds, K2000, Never
