wiring an OBP 3 with stacked knobs

I'm trying to do the same thing (or very similar) right now. Here's the problem: It's real tough to find the right pots for the setup I'm trying to do.

My Warmoth Gecko is currently wired vol - vol - mid w/separate freq selector switch - stacked Bass/Treb. What I want to do is Master Vol - Blend - stacked mid w/sweep - stacked bass/treb.

I am using Seymour Duncan Basslines and the OBP-3, SD says I need a 100K blend pot, which I can't seem to find, and worse yet, Aguilar says I need a 500K linear taper for the mid/sweep, I can't locate this anywhere.

Is this at all similar to your situation? Does anyone have any ideas? We could use some help here! :rolleyes:

Anyone attempted this? I am not sure If I want to drill more holes in my warwick.

It looks i need 50K concentric pots to do this for my bass-treble-mid controls

There is a way to avoid drilling holes on your warwick. On my corvette I used the stacked bass/treble pot, mid pot with the pull/push 400/800 selector and a stacked volume/blend pot with the push pull active passive. Thats 3 pots in total and no extra holes needed to be drilled. Talk to Brian @ www.bestbassgear.com and he will be able to help you out with the pots you need.
