Passive pickup with BMP and regular blackout in the same guitar?

Hey, I'm new to the forum, but I'm wondering, is this possible to do? I realize there would need to be 2 volume pots, the BMP and a regular 25k, but has anyone ever tried this or know if it's possible? Cause i currently have a Pegasus in the bridge in a 7 and the stock crappy pickup in neck for show, not connected to anything. However, i have a blackout neck lying around and i was wondering if it would work to have them in the same guitar connected preferably to the same jack. Any input is greatly appreciated

Actually, you could use the bmp as the master volume. No need to have two pots. So yeah, it will work.

How would i go about doing that? How would i have to wire it up?

I know i could wire it up with 2 output jacks and have no problems but I'd rather not go down that road. After the BMP, the passive circuit becomes active and the blackout is active as well. I've been screwing around with this for the past 3 days and i can't figure it out, idk what I'm doing wrong or what's missing or how to do what i want to do. And it seems like no one else really knows, and i haven't seen this asked anywhere in these forums so i guess no one else has done it before. It makes sense that it would work but I've tried so many different things that just haven't worked and it's making me think it probably won't. If anyone else has any input, it's greatly appreciated.
