need help with pots

Which is better to use?- a dual concentric pot or a push pull pot? I'm planning to install a volume pot for this piezo system in my other guitar. I don't want to drill holes for another tone pot so I went surfing the net for options. It was from net surfing that I found this thing about dual concentric pots. It's the first time I've seen or heard it. Anyone know how it works? (ie. when you turn the knob, do you activate both volume and tone or do u have to pull it so that before you pull the pot you activate the volume then after you pull the pot, you activate the tone with the volume? (is there even such a thing?)). Also, is it different than what people call a "blend pot" or concentric pot or are they all the same thing?

Also, what would be a good equalizer that I can add in the guitar that will compliment a graphtech piezo system?

Yes I did, I already went there- actually last night. It was going there in the first place the led me to my asking on this post the next morning. And yes, I am aware they explained how it works on the site but I can't just visualize! My head works through pictures- moving pictures if possible and words just ain't gonna cut it damn it!

For instance, when they say "these space-saving controls have concentric inner and outer knobs to control two separate functions, such as volume/tone, volume/volume, or tone/tone." what does it mean? I don't even know what's "concentric." I don't know how a concentric inner knob and outer knob works. (ie. can they work independently from each other)

They say I can use it for volume/volume, volume/tone, and tone/tone. I can imagine being able to use it in a situation where you use one pickup at a time. But how about both pickups? would I be able to adjust the neck tone and the bridge tone independently from each other when I use both pickups with the dual concentric pot?

Concentric means one circle within another...I would assume that the two knobs would operate independently, although I've never seen one myself, and don't know what they would look like (with the knobs on, that is).

However, come to think of it, you can find a dual concentric pot/knob on the Boss MT-2; for the high/low knob and the mid/mid freq knob. If you have one or ever see one, you'll know what I mean.

OK, I'll post a pic for you.

Google is your friend...

thnx eggman!

wait...
another question:

what knobs can fit on certain dual concentric knobs? i heard gibson knobs can't fit on it. Do you know any other dual concentric knobs that can fit a gibson top hat knob?
