That is 1 humbucker and 1 single coil, right? I'd probably use 500k pots as the single coil would be on the hot & dark side depending on what pickup you end up with. What passives are you switching to? CTS or Bournes pots are standards, as well as a Switchcraft jack if you want to switch that out.Administrator of the SDUGF

You can use a 500k for the humbucker
and add a 500k resistor between the start of the single coil and ground
this will make the single see the pot as a 250k
While the humbucker sees the full 500k
if the switch and jack look alright leave em
You can up grade to pure tone jacks if you wantLast edited by ehdwuld; 01-31-2021, 06:32 PM.EHD
