Gilmour build SD/Fender pickup combos question

Hello all,
I am in the middle of a Dave Gilmour black Strat build. I am installing A Fat 50s, Custom Shop 69 and a Duncan SSL 5.
My question is, do I need to reverse any wires so there is no phase issues with the pickups? I think I read somewhere about phase issues between Fender and SD pickups. Any help is appreciated thanks! I am on a 5 way blade switch with a small recessed SPDT toggle switch to combine all the pickups.

Check gilmourish.com. There you will literally find dozens who use that exact combination.

Edit - Hmmm, I'm dubious. It's got dual tone caps (unnecessary) and a volume kit (treble bleed). The wiring of the Fender/Duncan's and switch are correct though.

Thank you very much PFDarkside, so I do indeed need to reverse the wires on the SSL-5. Nice clear wiring diagram too ! :)
