I have a Gretsch Brian Setzer model. Nice guitar. However, it has a 3 way switch and a single volume control, no tone control.

Is there a stacked push-pull control to get volume and tone on the same potentiometer?

I'm not about to drill a hole in the guitar to add a tone control.

Not a push/pull type of pot, but Fender used to put stack pots on the Jazz Bass...
It had 2 pair, V&T for each p/u.
So, yeah... I imagine it shouldn't be too hard to find some.

In the past, I have gotten stacked pots, two pots, one shaft inside the other, no push-pull from GFS:

They also have the matching knob sets which are more Tele looking than Gretsch looking.

AES also has some:

Good Luck with The Project! Cool

I've used Jazz Bass stacked dual pots on several guitars, with good results. And easy to obtain Fender parts.
