I get blendable bridge and neck, switchable middle, and treble and bass contours, all on three matching knobs. The sweeps are nice, positions 2 and 4 sound great. Now all I need to do is find the right adjusting screw for the middle pickup and practice more.

I read about the concept (maybe in this forum) a while ago when an Ohio G&L dealer talked about how he experimented with an S-500 middle pickup in that spot, liked it so much that he had G&L make him a bunch of them and even had it branded the "ASAT Cat." He's a nice guy, but when I asked him for the particulars of the wiring scheme they used, he said, "That's my secret, brudda!" Love it! His guitars don't have the blend pots -- just a regular switch and a regular tone pot. I was just curious to solve the logistics puzzle -- how many features can I pack into three knobs.
