How is this project coming along? It was looking good so far!

Just purchased one of these plan to convert it to lefty. Im looking to make some basic inexpensive mods. What pots should I put in here? Also wanted to have one Master volume and the other knob for tone... Would I need to buy anything to make that happen or that just comes down to how its wired. Thx

The pot value is personal preference. The general rule is 500k for humbuckers, 250k for single coil. The higher the value, the brighter the output.

You should be able to find wiring diagrams on Seymour Duncan's website or whomever makes your pickups. There's also a huge thread of custom wiring diagrams here.

2hb with a 3 way and master volume and tone is a pretty standard set up. if that's what you want, it should be easy to find
