I have a varitone switch, I got mine from bigdogguitars and just hook one leg to ground and the other leg to tip on your jack

Gibson used to make the Blues Hawk with a varitone. Here is a website decicated to the Blues Hawk that includes a schematic. Not sure if this will help....

I like to try what kind sound coming with only using pietzo or pietzo + Humbucker or Humbucker.
That´s why there is 3 - way switch.

Jaakko Ryynänen write with varitone switch too and there i read at he suppose at varitone switch going to Tone place (?)


Teeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!

where are you? comments please!

Maybe this sounds crazy (I haven't even attatched a volume control to my builds yet!), but shouldn't you put the varitone in place of the 3-way switch? Why would you need both? ...like I said, it's probably crazy...I shouldn't comment on something I don't know much about...where's Ted when you really need him?
