Vol for each pickup and master tone with a 3way toggle

Try looking on Stewart MacDonald's website.  They offer wiring kits for strats, LPs, SGs, & PRS'.  I would think a basic LP or SG kit would be just what you need.  Volume & Tone Pots, Caps, Jacks, shielding, wire, knobs.  Everything you need in a single kit.  They also offer separate parts (like push/pull pots, switches, etc) if you want to do your own thing.  One stop shopping.

Good Luck

I've ordered a couple of those StewMac kits before, don't care for the quality of the pots included.... Use the parts list from the kit and get better quality parts from Warmoth!

I personally haven't had great luck with StewMac's Alpha pots either, except for the push pulls.  The tolerances were all over the place on the 500k audio taper ones I've bought, from 390k to almost 600k.  BUT the push pull ones were all almost dead on.

There's always RS guitarworks kits.  http://www.rsguitarworks.net/rsstore/index.php?cPath=31

Jack's right, get CTS pots and get them from somewhere else.  It sounds like you want almost stock Les Paul style wiring.
