2 Pickups, 2 volume Pots - Wiring Help

I have two single coils, neck and bridge. I have two volume pots, one is the Master/Neck and the other is the Bridge. I want to connect the bridge to the Master/Neck so I can blend it in with the Neck, and then be able to control the volume of both with the Master/Neck pot. Take a look at my diagram, does this look right?

So you always have the neck on? Would you ever want just bridge?
It looks right but ground is normally the back of the pots , a wire linking the back of the pots and the back of the master on your case going to sleeve oh the jack.

But yes that looks like it will do what you want but I reckon the fender jazz bass wiring will open up more flexibility for you.

Thanks! Yes, I know the ground goes to back of pots, just tried to keep my example simple for my question.

This is a custom build so its a little different... my bridge pickup is only a three pole for EAD on the bottom, so yes - neck will always be on and the bridge is just added blend of low end.

Thanks again for the help!
