Why not two stacked vol. knobs so you get 4 volumes in less room and you can try all kind of diiferent pickup combinations.

Good idea, I don't like the look of stacked knobs but it might be the best solution.

Two push pull knobs look like 2 single ones, limits your options though.  Or how about 2 pan pots with center detent, you can get all 4 pups at once and all the variations.

I thought of just putting the GOTT but it might have lost the OTTness of it... ;)

It may be bad, but Demolition Man is one of my daughter's favorites.

I won't forget Wesly Snipes blowing up something with a weapon he just discovered, then gleefully shouting "I have GOT to get me one of THESE!"
