thanks, but could I have two volumes and two tone pots for each pickup and then, a master tone pot for both?? Also, I've heard you could do a coil tap with a SPDT two way switch. I'd like to do this, and just put another hole in my pickguard. So I could throw both pickups into single coil, then...

I wired the blend pot in several different ways. But it is redundant. It's just another volume control for teh stupid pickups. But now I'm wondering about different mods. I want to make it so I can coil tap both humbuckers and make it singal coil tone. Right now, I have the neck pick-up wired...

I know you meant in place of the master. The small blender knob. But the small blender knob that came has 6 lugs. And after the two grounds, the jack and the cap, I have two lugs. But I only have one wire, from the 3-way switch. I wire it up, and only get signal on that side.

Im still wondering where I should hook up the bass control. I'm doing it right now. You say it should hook to the jack and the center on the 3way switch. Put where do I hook the center of the 3 way switch??? I have two choices! middle top or middle bottom

then again, trying to figure out the blender control is a mind bender. even you could'nt figure it out. how will I. I can't beleiuve no one has read this who has wired a blender control before?

Bwah! I know, it's jsut that I'm waiting for the freakin pots to get here!! thanks fer the help.

Hey, Danw, how do we get an expert expert expert to weigh in on these blender control, and bass control queries????? btw which side is the treble side? u don't mean t he side with the thinner strings? well anyway, I adjusted ity. still alot of bass.

i use extra light gauge in standard E. I used to play in standard C with extra heavy strings. That was fine, cuz the bass was supposed to be there. But now it's a lot less pleasant. So are you saying that with treble bleed, there will be noise when I turn the volume down? Like a hum? I need to...

I've adjusterd my pick-up height years ago. It's just too bassy. They're already really far from the string. can't beleive you said the width of a nickel. that's crazy close!

would using one of the higher values like .050 or .100 do a better job for a variable bass control ?

so, that first way you posted, danw, to hook up the blender, you aren't sure bout that?? And that variable bass switch, what size cap you suggest? and do I hook the middle wire on the 3 way switch up to the pot or?

Do you mean the screws on the sides that adjust pick-up height?? I only see screws in the pick-up and two on the sides. Do i gotta take the pick-ups out?

have what fixed?? you think it's broken?? I don't think it's broken, I just got alot of bass sound, which I think is because of the semi-hollow body. I guess I could get his guitar and get all the same electronics, but he's not gunna let me have his ric for a while. Anyway, now I'm interested...

how do i run the signal through a cap?

I was lookin to just buy the rickenbacker electronics look at this jack: http://www.rickenbacker.com/cart.asp?viewitem=08011&category=viewitem&buffer_category=Electronics maybe you have to wire two connections from the blender to the jack?

I thought I mentioned already, because rick pick-ups are singal coil. I already looked inh is a while back too, and it's wired wierd. And that was years ago. It looked alot different than the inside of mine. And before I came here, and read what you told me, i had no idea how to wire guitars, or...

NO it's not dead, because we haven't mentioned Dean Ween, or his amazingness.

yes i see now. Thanks, danw! Still gotta find out how to wire the blender switch. My friend has a real rick. And the blender knob works like it's supposed to. doesn't affect the volume. I thought you said a resident expert would reply soon? lol. I want to try and get rid of some of the bass...

take a listen to "exactly where I'm at" by ween.

i can't find the place for their wiring diagrams I just rewired it so the volume control is indipendant on the middle switch. I have a special blender pot comming in the mail. still dunno how to wire it up. do you mean that 5 wires are more like dimargio pick=ups??
