I mod guitars. Here is a nice Squier strat with on off switches for each stock pickup!

It also has a direct out switch that bypasses the volume, also known as a blower/solo switch.

The on off switches are actually "on on on" (three positions) switches that when flicked in opposite directions will do phase reversal. This is a modern version of Brian May's series phase circuit. See the provided picture that shows the original diagram.

The volume is regular, then one tone knob cuts treble, the other bass (a PTB circuit a la Leo Fender G&L guitars).

Sounds like a lot but it's actually pretty intuitive and easy to use.

I put some hours into it and upgraded the pots to CTS potentiometers and the switches, so about $50 of parts.

$300 OBO.

You can demo it
