Push-Pull Tone Pot

[Brian]

I'm looking for a push-pull tone pot to switch my Santana to McCarty wiring. I just got a quote for a PRS branded pot for $28 and that seems really high IMO. Does anyone have any suggestions for a similar quality pot for cheaper?

There is nothing special or unique about the push/pull that PRS uses. StewMac sells the same thing for under $9. Part #1216 -- 500K ohm pot with a DPDT push/pull switch.

When you do the switch let us know how to do it. I am also cosidering doing the Mccarty switching in my Santana.:)

Will do, I'll take pictures along the way... but it won't be til the summer. This should do it for you though...just swap out the tone pot for the push pull and follow this diagram

If any of you guys wire before I do (I'm slated for early May - when I'm from from school) be sure to take pictures and post any tips you come across.
