Im thinking about adding a humbucker to my jazz bass as a third pick up.
Something Ive seen on 90s basses from Jeff Ament. Or something like Billy Sheehan would do with a gibson style mudbucker.

My current jazz bass has a series/parallel switch already. How would I wire such a pickup (a Dimarzio model One for instance) on a jazz bass with series/parallel switch. Can it be done with three stacked (volume/tone) knobs? And perhaps 1 or 2 toggle switches (one for series/parallel j pickups + one for serie/parallel the humbucker PU). Infinite sounds....

Would something like this work? And what PU's would you recommend?

 

Something like this picture. Only with a third stacked knob for the humbucker and perhaps a serie/parallel toggle.

I've recently bought a Spear Flextool which has HPJ pickups - each has its own control knob which may be the way to go - must be the easiest way to understand what you are doing.
