Stacked concentric pot help.

[Heft]

Is it possible to use one stacked concentric pot for both volume and tone? Does anyone have a diagram for that in a telecaster setup?
Thanks,
Heft

A concentric pot is actually two separate pots, so you could use the usual connections to this. Just think of it as two pots and you should be ok.

Yes.  The original Jazz bass used this exact wiring method.

Theoretical, would it make sence to use 3 concentric pots with 3 pickups each having their own volume and tone? If so, then why is it not a standard wiring.

I found it was too difficult to use because the tone knob got in the way when I'd adjust the volume and vice-versa. Concentric pots are fine on a piece of fixed equipment, like a mixer or an amp. Using them on a guitar isn't really workable IMO.
