Adding a Humbucker to a P-bass with J-pick up

[Nodd]

I have a notion to add a 'Mudbucker' to my Squier P-bass.

It already has a Precision pickup in the usual position and a J pickup in the bridge position.

I intend to add the Retro vibe  Mudbucker at the neck in the Tele bass position.

Questions:

Has anyone on here added a third pick up?

Anyone got any switching and control ideas? 

Should I use the coil tap option?

keep it all passive?

How do I balance or mix the pickups?

Any other thoughts or considerations.

Thank you in anticipation

Go the Tony Franklin route and put in a pup selector switch?

You certainly won't ever want all 3 turned up. What sound do you want? Maybe stick with VVT with the Pup selector switching between the bridge pup and the mudbucker?

Thanks G,

good thinking.

Maybe alt between P and Mud, that being maybe what I'd use more often, along with the bridge.
