i'm kinda having a conversation with myself here, but just to get it straight......
by using photos from
http://www.telecasterplanet.com/ i can see the "blackguard book" diagram (
http://inlinethumb18.webshots.com/12...600x600Q85.jpg ) is the same as the pictured nocaster #1735, although they do have the output jack polarity reversed on the drawing (whoops!). the
http://www.provide.net/~cfh/bcastwir.jpg drawing is almost correct, but the wiper of the blend control should go to the input side of the volume pot, not the wiper of the volume pot. the schematic (picture next to the drawing) from that site is different from their drawing (???). the seymour drawing is completely different and i'm not sure if it would work or not.
a tip i read about was to put a series resistor between the .05 mf capacitor and the switch to diminish the high end rolloff in the "dark" position. 22k ohms was suggested. it was also suggested that a shunt across the 15k ohm resistor (so it would be "jumped")on the switch would improve the balance between the pickups on the blend control.
i haven't tried this yet and any input from ya'll is appreiciated..........red
