I mention this, because you're a guy who's willing to experiment and find new, better ways of doing things.
Some people here have written about Kinmans in the past. So, I figured I'd check it out, because I didn't know a thing about them. It seems like this guy has some good ideas with regards to pickup design. At least, he presents himself like he really knows what he's doing.
He has a couple of different, interesting, pre-wired switching systems that one can get. Some of these diagrams remind me of some of the options available on EBMMs with the 5-position switch.
Check out these wiring diagrams. They feature a blend control (the second tone knob) that allow the addition of a pickup. One of these diagrams shows the option of getting the bridge and middle (of an SSS configuration) in series. There's also an option for all three coils at once.
This is the K9, which gives you that combination with the 2 coils in series: http://www.kinman.com/images/inside/ourProducts/K9StratFunction.pdf
This is the K7, which doesn't have that combination, but it still seems cool: http://www.kinman.com/images/inside/ourProducts/K7selections.pdf
Here is the link to his introductory page. Tele, Fender, noiseless single coil guitar pickups
It seems a bit more complicated than the system EBMM already gives us (with stunning results), but you know, it seems interesting and worth a quick look, especially for SSS guitars.
