Perhaps you, the members of the Bare Knuckle Forum will have some feedback for me.
After purchasing a matched, 4-conductor HH set of Alnico V Impulse Pick-Ups from an American Distributor, I was inspired to start playing around with Pick-Up blending options on my 2016 PRS SE Custom 24 FR. Prior to taking the guitar apart to accommodate a new pup configuration, the guitar had its stock pick-ups in it with a 3-position Blade lever switch, 2x500k pots (one standard[Master Vol.], one push/pull[Master Tone, push/pull=coil split]), wired between 2, 4-conductor humbuckers.
My Goal is to have 2 Volume pots, where one 500k pot features standard operation of the neck pick-up volume (0-100%) located furthest from the bridge, and the second 500k pot features a master coil split for both neck and bridge pick-ups using the push/pull function and its rotary function be volume control for the bridge pick-up while being located closest to the bridge. Preferably, this would be wired excluding any kind of a pick-up selector. Pick-up selection and any potential blend of levels between them will be controlled using exclusively volume pots and be relative to each pot's levels.
I am not having any luck finding schematics for such a configuration through nearly any resource online and the reason I want to try this so bad is that I have never had anything like it. Really where my confusion lies primarily is in the portion of wiring that bypasses the pick-up selector and still allows for a single pot to act as a master coil split. The Result being that when both pots are at 100%, their levels are equalized like the middle position of a 3-way selector so that the blend between the pick-ups can be set by rolling off the desired pick-up's volume.
Hopefully you all have a thorough understanding of my goals with this project, and I hope to hear from those of you who have had experience enough to provide further guidance to someone much greater than novice, but far from expert.
