What say you ?

I do 150k/680pf these days. Same thing Suhr uses for most of his guitars.

Yeah, I'm going to be running a slightly hot PAF-style pickup into a 500kΩ volume pot (no tone), and straight into the output jack.

Suhr's values might work for me.

I bought a treble bleed to put in once, but realized it would not clean up a dirty amp.

But what if you put it in series with a regular volume so you have both..

I'm seeing all sorts of variations, like putting the circuit on a push-pull pot.

Interesting. I dont generally like those, but that is something i might do

It doesn't sound like what I want either.

I've just never had a guitar setup with no tone control, so I figured I'd look into this simple, little mod.
