I thought I might do something like this.
I think the end result is the same as what you are looking for: the volume control range is the range you use most often. There is no need for a 100k pot if you only use the "bottom" 50k, e.g. if your amp clips with 1V input from a 2V source.

Pretty much what I'm doing. Only a 240ohm resistor and 47k variable pot. But the same idea.
I was wondering if there was ANY effect on the sound?
thanks

"I was wondering if there was ANY effect on the sound?"
In my example, it is possible that a high quality single 50k resistor could be slightly more transparent than one half the 100k pot; that's why I was considering it.
