Default Passive stereo in-guitar single knob volume control?

So I have a k&k pure mini in tandem with an internal mic. This is all passive and goes through a TRS jack into a Sunnaudio MS-2 Stereo preamp. I'd like an in-guitar (soundhole) single roller-type volume control for both the pu and the mic at the same time. Is there such a thing?

I think Sunnaudio makes one. Or they used to. It attaches to the sound board just inside the hole. It has two volume wheels labelled A and B. Check out their website.

Not anymore (if they ever did) And, FYI for those interested, this is a reply from Sunny (at Sunnaudio) on this topic:

"It's not simple to add a volume control to the pickup and mic signals without affecting the impedance, the sound, or adding hum. For controlling volume of both a pickup and internal mic, the best option is a stereo (passive) volume pedal in the MS-2 Insert loop. The optimum placement and value for the MS-2 is in the "POST" insert loop with 20k to 50k Ohms. This preserves the impedance, fidelity, and the balance of the mid-side stereo image."

So, a stereo volume pedal is the only viable option for my setup. FYI
