with 2 pups and 2 volumes, why have a blend?

I'm trying to work out a wiring design for a guitar I'm building. It's a 12 string which will have two Vintage Vibe P-90s. I would like to have the options of each pup alone, both in series, both in parallel, and both out of phase.

I hardly ever use a tone control but I'm going to have a common one in it just in case.

So should there be a blend or would the two volumes be good enough?

And is anyone talented/generous enough to show me a wiring diagram (you knew that was coming, didn't you)

Blenders don't like series mods, so I vote, no blender.

Your pup selection sounds like my Five Tone Tele scheme, but using parallel/out of phase rather than series/out of phase. Are you using a Strat-like 5-way, or a Gibson toggle and some p/p pots?

PM me, we'll talk about what you want, and I'll draw something up for you.
