Hey guys, this is my first post on the forum! I've been on here for a little while, reading and researching, and I'm about to start a new project, and wanted to get some help.
First, I'll give a little background on the project. I am putting together a Tele! I have a body already routed for a P90 Neck pickup, and a standard Bridge pickup cavity. I have a 500K linear push/pull pot for the volume, and a 500K audio taper push/pull pot for tone. I have a 22 Pico-Farad oil cap. I am going to use the vintage Gibson wiring. I want to try and get a blend of vintage Gibson and Tele tones, but be capable of getting hotter tones if I wanted.
Now, things are going to get weird. I want to use a four way switch. But, for the bridge pickup, I am using an STHR-1 "Hot Rails," mini hum bucker. I want to use the two push-pulls to both coil split, and series/parallel the pickup. AND, when the pickup is coil split, I want it to hum cancel the neck pickup, if I am using it in the 2 or 4 positions. Its kind of a Page-Bucker setup for the bridge pickup.
Now, here are the wiring instructions for the pickup

And on this website, they have a 4 way switch diagram.

I've been sort of going back and forth in my head if it can work or not. I was just looking for some help trying to figure out a wiring diagram, or for someone to tell me that this is positively, not going to work. Really, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
