I have a Shugz loom for my upcoming gspbasses rock machine for Volume, Tone and Blend. I also have a mini switch for coil tapping the pickups.
However, thanks to the dog managing to get hold of it while I was working, one of the wires to the blend pot...Er... Came off.
So, I *could* just solder that back together and the job is a goodun, but I have another idea.
I never use the tone pot. No, really, it just doesn't get much use at all. If the coil tap tone is too bright, I could just put a cap on the switch I think for a fixed bit of treble roll off (maybe
@ICBM can correct me here?). So using the switch would tap the pickups and put a cap in series to suck away some treble. I think. Maybe.
I saw Shadow do some pots with a killswitch, but as I don't use a tone pot anyway... And it'll probably break the pot function knowing me.
I also found this. Not sure if it's suitable or whether it's latching, but I reckon I could make one of these run off a pretty small battery... Could be wrong?

Basically, are any of these viable alternatives? Allprats do one, but it's red which will clash horribly. And that's very, very important.
And LED's are cool.
