Question on Volume configuration

hi, im trying to replace my volume pot knob with a switch. so instead of having a turnable knob to raise or lower the volume, its like a pickup switch where its either full up or off. is there any way i can do this?

yep....pretty much exactly the same idea as the mini-toggles that were used on some old Charvel, B.C. Rich, and a few other makes of shred guitars in the '80s....all you have to do is eliminate the volume knob from the equation.

something like this should do it:
