Basically it would be a 3 humbucker Strat. Kinda....
So, I have a MIM strat with a humbucker in the bridge position that I sort of want to change up and was wondering if anyone has this same set up or something similar. I want to keep the bridge humbucker, put another humbucker in the neck, and maybe in the middle put something like Double Stack single coil, or a Hot Rails or something like it that would make this guitar a 3 humbucker strat. Is this even possible? Would the wiring configuration allow for all this? What sort of problems am I likely to face with this, all these humbuckers, bucking all that hum? Any help/advice is appreciated...

Yes a basic strat strategy, 5 way switch. That is, if it will allow for it. I think it would be cool for the neck/middle position. But if so, would I be splitting two humbuckers, which would basically be the same as one humbucker? Meaning, one half of the humbucker from the neck combined with one half of the humbucker from the middle? Or would I get a tone that sounds like 2 humbuckers together? I guess thats my question, and what Im ultimately looking for.
