Help with HSS strat wiring

[fusedbrain]

Looking for some suggestions:
I want to run 2 vintage type single coils with a full size HB in the bridge with only one vol and one tone pot.
The sc's want to see a 250k vol, and the hb wants to see 500k.
Wadddya do?
I've seen 2 ideas so far:
500k vol pot with 2 x 470k resistors parralell to ground off the 5 way for each of the single coils, so they see a 250k load.
Or
250k vol pot with a 250k resistor in series with the hot wire from the humbucker so it sees a 500k load.
I've tried all my single coils with 500k pots and they are too bright.
I want to use a trem-spaced Afwayu in the bridge, and I'm pretty sure it will be too dark with a 250k vol pot, but I haven't tried it yet, because I still have to route the body lol!
Thoughts?

How about using a stacked single?

500k vol pot with the 470k resistors. Superswitch makes this extremely easy and guarantees your singles always see ~250k and humbucker always sees ~500k regardless of what position of the switch you use. Suhr's pre-SSC/SSCII diagram is the gold standard for this in a normal guitar that can accept a blade switch IMO

Is there a guitar wiring layout you can't do with a 5-way super switch? I swear, that was the technology NASA used to fly the Apollo missions to the moon.

Fukking gold is right
Thanks for that man !
Exactly what I'm looking for.
I think I have a superswitch in the shop too.
If not, I can get one asap no problem.
You guys are the best

Just went thru this. Ended up just running a 500k because my Neck pup is as bright or balanced as my single Neck.. I tried running a 470k in there, but it was dull. These are all Alnico V deals..
