That color is gorgeous
With the binding and everything!

Also a huge thank you to Shadoweclipse who provided the wiring diagram in an epic PM convo titled "Possibly insane schematic help request".
You are very welcome!! I love the epic requests! Occasionally there's a request for something that's just too much for knowledge base, but I do love a challenge. I'm a little bummed that the blends don't work as well as you'd hoped. Would a different pot value make a difference? I wonder if one of the other wiring gurus know something I don't (I mean, I know they do, but for this specific case
)

If you're not enamored with the bled pots, you could always use the 3-way toggle as Pickup A/both/Pickup B, and then use the two pots you freed up for a PTB circuit to regain the bright/dark function you lost from the 3-ways.
That is a really cool idea!! Simple, but elegant.
I'm glad you like the color combo. I had like a dozen green color swatches that I was hemming and hawing over before I picked that one.
mbene, I really like your suggestion to swap the slider switches and the pots. Very cool idea. I will definitely try that at some point (and will likely start another epic PM thread with Shadoweclipse
).

And I generally am not a huge fan of most Fender-used greens either.

You know where I am
Though I am still taking a hiatus from schematic work for a bit.
