This. Humbuckers blend like always. Piezo added as I choose. Run the piezo volume (no tone) pot straight to the output jack. I want the volume pot for the piezo to operate completely on it's own, so separate from the humbuckers. It won't run through the switch or have anything to do with the humbuckers.

For example, if I find a sound I like with neck on 10 and bridge on 4, I want to then have the option of turning up the piezo to blend it in and maybe smooth it out. So I would end up with 2v and 2t knobs for the humbuckers and a volume (only) just for the piezo. It just adds another layer of timbral options. It will look funny with a 5th knob, but who cares? And even when this is done, I may NEVER use that piezo, but it's the journey more than the destination with me.



I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
