If you look back in time through the Gibson catalog, you will see that at one point they switched to maple necks on the Les Paul. I have not heard any horror stories of issues with those particular guitars.
Yes, I know. Late to the party, but just my input here. Hopefully it helps future searchers.

I guess my first questions would be about how much inventory of strings/parts/other-what-nots do you have to keep on hand, and do you have a road case/workstation rig that travels with you?

After a bit of sleep, and some time to think it over more clearly, my idea only allows control of neck pickup blend volume when in the middle position. For example; master volume at full, neck volume at half, would result in bridge heavy mix. Turning down the master volume would reduce overall volume, but is still bridge heavy in the mix. It does not allow half volume bridge with full volume neck. I can still offer a diagram if that limitation is acceptable to you.

The way I am thinking it, your layout would be: master volume, neck (or bridge) volume, and master tone. Bridge pickup wired to the toggle, neck pickup to middle of neck volume pot, output to toggle. Toggle output to master volume and tone wired in normally.
It’s after midnight and I just got home from work, so drawing a diagram is not happening at this time. Maybe in the morning someone else will have come up with a better solution, or I can diagram it then. I’ll check back in.

Only going by the manufacturer listing. It doesn’t feel like any paint or sealer on the surface, so I feel confident it is just oiled.

I think a translucent would be fine. It is an open pore finish as is.

I apologize for being kinda rude. Working second shift 6 to 7 days a week has made me a bit short tempered.
My lack of experience with Gibson wiring leaves me unable to think in their terms.
I look forward to seeing if anyone else with more experience comes up with a solution.

Sorry, not able to help. Maybe Gibson style wiring.
