I would like to know if it is possible to change the wiring of a strat to have two volume pots and one tone ( to control tone on the bridge pickup).

Any configuration would be appreciated!!! Links too!

Thanks to all!

Here's one that I've used:

Novak 7-Position Mod

Master volume is used to control the Neck/Bridge volume
Tone 1 is used to control the Middle volume
Tone 2 is used to control master tone

3-Way Switch:
1 = Bridge, 2 = Bridge + Neck, 3 = Neck

5-Way Switch:
1 = Bridge, 2-4 = Bridge + Neck, 5 = Neck

Both switches are wired exactly the same - you just get redundancy with the 5 way.

You can get a lot of wiring variations if you use a 5-way superswitch.
What exactly do you want the second volume to do? (volume for a specific pickup and a master volume?)

Take a look at the Eric Johnson model Strat. It has a different wiring scheme which I copied with my guitar and sounds great. I have the neck pickup hooked up to the first tone pot, the middle is not connected to a tone pot since no tone adjustment is needed for it. The bridge pickup is connected to the 2nd tone pot and the standard 5-way switch.
