Jazz VVTT

I could see some use for this. There are a few threads here on how to do the wiring. I don’t think it would be life-changing. Biggest hurdle would be relocating the output jack. It would probably look best moving to the side of the body requiring a route and barrel jack.
 
I did it to an active bass that I converted to passive about 12 years ago. I only did VVTT to make use of 4 holes as it had a side jack. I didn’t find it overwhelmingly special, but then again, I fought that bass for good tone since day 1...
 
My daughter built me a jazz bass a few years back and the electronics we used were passive VBTT, with a knob for each. I personally like having a tone knob for each pickup. I would think finding VVTT would be too hard. Should work great.
