    I'm new to wiring pickups/pots and wanting to blend between pickups instead of choosing one, the other or both with the 3 way switch I currently have. So I might try replacing the 3 way switch with this blending pot but was hoping someone could confirm this is what I need. I know I need split shaft fine spline and the other volume and tone pots I'm using are 500K if that matters...

    If you’re new to wiring you may appreciate the convenience of the screw terminals. It’s pricey, but sometimes I don’t mind paying extra for convenience and flexibility, and perhaps you might feel the same way.
