A thought popped into my head just now.
I know it would be feasible, and even useful, to have individual pickup volumes as well as a master volume on the same guitar. For example, in a two pickup guitar with a 3-way toggle, pickups go to their individual volume pots, then to the 3-way switch, the output of the switch goes to a master volume, which then goes to a tone pot and output jack.
But I'm wondering how much of an effect on tone this would have on the pickups, essentially being loaded down by two volume pots in series. Anyone done this before and have something to say about it?
