I have found that most Fender type guitars, including copies, have volume controls that work OK, with little or no loss of treble when turned down...although the capacitor does help too, if fitted- don't bother trying it with the average humbucker equipped guitar though!
I mucked around at our little local Shads club meeting a couple of weeks ago having a go at "Sacha"with a backing track- using me Chinese Squier Tele and me new (secondhand!) Marshall MG50DX- hi gain channel with echo/chorus for the bridge part, but then I backed the guitar volume off for the acoustic main theme part-got an amazing clean, almost acoustic tone, then that edgy sustain for the bridge parts, with just a quick twist of the volume knob-no need to change guitars!
