Wiring diagram for HSS w/ 500k and 250k volumes

What's a good design for a HSS using s 500k HB volume snd 250k SS volume? I plan to use a 3 way blade switch for them. Pots are linear. Are caps recommended for rolling down (treble bleed)?
 
i dont like treble bleeds usually, but others do. i like to use a fuzzface type pedal and they dont get along. i assume youre wiring the three way for each individual pup, neck/middle/bridge?
 
I found this resistor method..

To balance a 500k humbucker and 250k single coil, use a 500k volume pot and add a 470k or 500k resistor in parallel between the single coil's hot switch terminal and ground. This makes the single coil "see" a 250k load while the humbucker operates with the full 500k, preventing the single coil from sounding too harsh.
