Awesome, Would you be kind enough to share a diagram of how you wired the switch? I'm thinking of making a push/pull version of it on the tone knob itself
The standard Fender Greasebucket control uses both 0.022mfd & 0.1mfd caps along with a 4K7 resistor....the 0.1mfd goes from outside leg of pot to central leg of pot then 0.022mfd cap wired from middle leg of tone pot with 4K7 resister in series to back of pot, earth....Fender uses terible 20% - 30% caps & terrible resisrors...i changed mine for hifi grade polypropylene caps with 5% tolerance & a 1% tolerance resistor...sounds more transparent...3D like...more musical...always use a linear tone pot, i use CTS 8% tolerance 250K linear pots for volume/s (Fender bass's & Fretking Esprit) & tone pots...you cannot fade in a log pot...if you want a more bassy sound you can swap the 0.022mfd cap for a 0.047mfd....i use Fenders Greasebucket tone set up on all my passive bass's....& my MIM Fender Cylclone guitar...sounds far better clean & with high gain tone..

I played a grease bucket circuit fender jazz and it was the best sounding jazz I've ever played
My American Special Jazz in candy apple red is a bass for life keeper

Some people like it and others hate it ,it's personal taste I prefer old school tone circuit.
Yeah, me too
What size battery does it take ?
It's passive
