Onboard passive tone systems.
I want schematics for passive tone filters that can be linked up to you average switch on a guitar. What I'd be really interested in is something along the lines of the QTX filter installed as standard on quite a few Alden guitars, but it's impossible to find a schematic for it, and I don't know if anybody actually owns one that I can copy.
So other suggestions are fine. I'm not interested in active systems.

Its supposed to be along the lines of a Varitone, like that of the Blueshawk or so I've heard. Link
Maybe you can get a gut shot of an Alden and make variants of the schematic above? Though I suppose that sort of gut shot would have to be quite specific due to the amount of wiring I could imagine being involved in this sort of job and it could be only a few resistors or whatnot different.
Keep us updated, I wanna try something like this soon.

As well, theres a few other guitars in there that might spark some synapses for ya.

aha, THIS PAGE is packed with tons of awesome passive EQ options. I've bought the parts for the hi/lo pass filter one, I was going to use it to replace the normal tone control on my musicmaster.
