Iam confused

[2001standard]

I have a guitar and it has three pots, three way toggle switch.

It has two volumes and one tone.

If you guys had a choice what would you choose?

One Volume and two tones?

Or two volumes and one tone?


Thanks in advance.

I'd go for master vol & 2 tones. JMO

 

[Phildog]

I agree. I'd definitely want a master volume and 2 tone knobs.

I use to go two volumes and master tone. Sometimes I want to clean up/quiet the neck and then switch to a full blast bridge. With my Strat I eventually went stacked concentric pots so Id have everything.

Yea its a Bernie mardsden PRS.

I just may do the master volume and two tones. then I can also use two different tone caps like an LP.

Thanks

What's your point?

A real man would find a way.

For an H-H with a three way toggle and 3 pots I like having two vol and a master tone (like on my Explorer). That way I can adjust the volumes to various levels when the guitar is in middle/both on position.

Another option is to keep 2 volumes and add treble bleed circuits to both, might work good depending on the tones that you are looking for ?

I can live without any tone pots at all.

I use to own a Bernie....great guitars.

Pretty sure those have treble bleeds on the pots already....

2 volumes and 1 tone. Tone control for bridge pickup only and a 500k ohm resistor and .022mfd cap in series to simulate a tone control on 10 for the neck.

Thanks for the responses, I think I'll go Master volume and two tones.

And SO WHAT you do seem to come off as a Dick. Well no you Do come off as a Richardhead!!!

I converted my Explorer to 1 vol, 2 tone and it is MUCH more usable this way. I balanced the neck and bridge volumes with everything on 10, and when I'm playing I can roll my bridge tone to 7 or 8, and flip to the neck and have no mud. Plus sometimes I run my neck tone at 0 for the woman tone and can flip to bridge spank quick. You will like it
