    Default remove tone pot from neck pickup circuit

    My Hamer has 2 pickups, 2 volumes, and 1 tone pot. I want to rewire so that the tone pot only affects the bridge pickup. Here is a link to the wiring diagram.
    Does anyone know what I have to change?

    Thanks

    i just bypassed the tone pot in my epi les paul,(see; My first mod thread) adds some noticable sparkle and treble.im debating bypassing the volume pot with an on-off switch as i hear it steals a little treble as well.

    Bridge-volume>tone>3way
    neck-volume>3way
    output from 3way to jack.

    Thanks! Just rewired it. I just put a P90 in the neck and I never have a desire to make the neck pickup darker than it already is.
