Anybody have a schematic that would allow me to have the tone control work only with the bridge pickup? I never use the tone control with the neck only. I would like:

1. Neck (no tone)
2, Neck (no tone) + Bridge (w/tone)
3. Bridge (w/tone)

Thanks.

There is a wire that goes from the tone pot to the volume pot which causes it to affect all pickups. Remove that wire from the volume pot and solder it from tone pot to the bridge pickup contact on the selector switch. That will allow the tone to control only the bridge pup. And According what I've read/been told, will also slightly brighten up the tone of the neck pup due to less load.
