Re: 3 hole control plate?
What you could do is use the standard plate and get a dual concentric pot. That way you will still be using the standard plate. go to http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Electro...s:_Control_pots_and_knobs/5/Control_Pots.html or http://www.warmoth.com/hardware/parts/parts.cfm?fuseaction=include_potentiometers

As an idea, go to your local music store (there is a jobber called Harris Teller, they'll know who you are talking about), they carry Fender parts, probably cheaper than what you could get them for from Fender direct (not much though, there is very little markup or down on electronics parts) ... Fender had a concentric pot that is a 250k-A and a 500k-A (is the one for the old Jazz Basses), that way you have one of eack if you don't want to go with both being 500ks or 250ks. You can use either section for each, I would recommend the 500K for a blender though (better if you can make it into a no-load). If you can't make it into a no-load (meaning you don't feel like taking the pot apart)then you'd want to go with the 500k (use that section), as that will keep the other pup from bleeding thru better when it's not supposed too.
