Pickup Lines...

[Toxophilite]

 
I have an archtop with two surface mounted pickups, re-issue De'Armonds
My neck pickup is a fair bit louder than my bridge pickup(like it would be acousticaly)
But I'd like to balance them a little better
I only have a master volume control for both pickups on the pick guard and I'm not into making more holes right now
The only way I can adjust their volume is via the pickup poles and they're maxed out in relation to the strings.
So
without adding individual volume controls, can I put a small resistor in series with the bridge pickup, prior to the switch (or would it be a bleed to ground rather than in series?)
And if this makes for high end loss can I get around that(maybe a cap across the resistor)

OKay I stuck a 500k trim pot on my selector switch that I can access with a little screw driver
all is well

See, now that's the kind of Bigsby bar I was talking about.

Pickup lines??? I sure had something else in mind.   

One of my favorite pickup lines came from Junior Samples. "Lulu, for a fat girl you sho don't sweat much!"

That's BR-549....

Har Har  boy your telling your age now! What for supper Grandpa!  We haven variable resistors in out pickup lines with a little shrink wrap--yum--yum

Wow this is really one of those "the lord helps those who help themselves" threads

Though I find that particular quote works best at buffet dinners


Now what to do with all that useful advice??


An ex-girlfriend of mine once said that a fellow guitarist tried to pick her up with the line


"I don't know if it's the champagne, or the moonlight, but your eyeballs......"


I didn't need to hear the rest...&*^%(&^ eyeballs!  smooth stuff!
