    That's how I have my tone controls on my MIM Strat. JV style. Works better that way and makes the quack positions sizzle. The middle pup sounds cool full open.

    If you want sizzlin' quack, try wiring in a push/pull pot to enable you to put the bridge pickup in series with the middle. Uber-quack!!

    I know you really like that sound. If things go right I just might have another Strat and then I could try that on my MIM. Whats a good source for Uber-pots for dat Uber-quackin' sound?
