I really love my Les Paul uke but I think it drives the front end of my battery amp just a little bit too much so i thought about making a little box to plug the lead through with a volume and tone control and then I wondered about perhaps fitting them into the body? I've not checked to see if there's room yet and I'm capable of doing the retro fit if there is room.
Just wondered if anyone else has had the same thought or even done it?
The pic is just for illustration with a couple of knobs I had handy and if I make the conversion I'll use proper Les Paul knobs.

There are other options to consider, too.

Taylor has a - very expensive - cable with built in controls.

John Pearse has a less expensive small gizmo for volume and tone.

Finally, Behringer has inexpensive DI's with gain and tone controls.
