Tele SCN + SD Hot Stack Wiring

I'd like to rewire an American Deluxe Tele. Right now it has SCN pickups with the S-1 switching. What I'd like to do -
- replace the bridge SCN with a Duncan Hot Stack. This would have a push/pull tone pot for the options of hum cancelling or power boost.
- leave the SCN in the neck position
- replace the S-1 switching with a 4way pickup selector switch. It would have the same function as the S-1 system (B, M in series, M in parallel, N) but I feel it would be more robust than the S-1 push buttons.

I'm thinking of first wiring the Hot Stack as the diagram shows. Then would the hot lead from the push/pull go to the 4way as shown in the 4way diagram?

you should be able to do that no problem. im actually wiring up a friends strat with the s1 switch and its a pita. never would do it on my guitar.

wire the whole thing up and if you find the pups are out of phase flip the hot and ground wires and you should be set

yeah, im pretty sure the fender pups are reverse wiring from duncans. If you follow the duncan diagram then use the SCN hot lead for the ground and its ground lead for hot. That should have you right as rain.
