Hi everyone, long time lurker, first time poster!
I have an idea for implementing a blower switch in my tele which is a little bit off the wall, so I need the brains trust to steer me right.
A bit of background: I play single channel amps and use the volume pot for the whole clean-to-mean thing. Recently I installed a blower switch in HSS strat on a separate mini switch so that the bridge humbucker gets routed directly to the output ack regardless of the switch/vol/tone settings. This works great and got me thinking about adding one to my main guitar, but wondering if I could do it wihtout adding a separate mini switch...
My tele has a tele neck pup and a single-coil sized rail 'bucker in the bridge, single volume pot and a 3-way toggle switch. My thinking is I would like the controls to work normally, but if I then switch to another 'mode', then when the bridge pup is selected it would be direct to the output jack, whilst retaining normal operation in the neck and middle positions.
I'm thinking it could be done using a push/push on the volume pot to select the 'mode' and using a Dimarzio EP1111 for the 3-way. Here's what I've got so far:
Could this work??
Cheers
