Stacked/concentric pots...

[YARAH8]

Is anyone out there making a *stacked* volume/blend or stacked master tone/blend concentric potentiometer?

I’m pretty certain that Lakland uses these types of pots on whatever the model the Joe Osborn turned into.
Maybe you can check with them to see where they source them.

Some discussion of the Noll stacked volume blend pot here. Wiring diagrams too. I believe the price has gone up. Also, make sure the control cavity is deep enough.

I have a BEE preamp in a bass that has 2 pickups that I recently acquired. It’s a 3 band that’s wired volume, treble stacked bass/mids. In other words, there’s a single volume for both pickups. I want to change the volume to a stacked blend/ volume. Can someone help on what pot I need? I have a Bartolini stacked but I’m pretty sure it’s a blend pot. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I don't know if they sell them separately, but Audere uses them on their preamps that have the most functionality packed into limited space. For example, I know the 4-band EQ models use a volume/blend concentric pot.

I've definitely seen one, I believe, it was this one of those (see 'product variants' below):

MEC Volume / Balance Push/Pull Pot Modules

mono + balance stacked potentiometer module with push/pull switch concentric shaft R1 = B500K (resistance 500 kOhm, (B) linear) R2 = 05A25k…

Interesting! Any idea if it's the top pot that pulls up or is it both?

I'd expect only the top knob to be pulled, as it's the design used on all stacked push-pull pots I've seen yet.
