thanks pierce, very well explained, i wont need a diagram , i;ll try to get one of those 6 way with two outputs to get the strato-like setting. and the idea to have an empty position to kill the pickups is a great idea, i think van halen did something like that but he removed one pick up? dont remenber, saw it on a video.
i just want one tone and one volum pot so i think its easy. the ideas you posted are great but this is my first electric mod on a guitar, i'll try to keep it simple besides, i;ve seen those guitar with swtiches and pots for every pick up and indeed, they look like syntesizer.. ugly \ but it gave me an idea... take a big square pice of wood and make a guitar with all you said, it WILL look ugly but may come handy for home recording or just to try new stuff
anyways,thanks for the info, i'll post the finish product when its done
ps. what about the trim pot idea? will it work just fine?
