Can I wire the pickup into a volume or tone control?

Yes – if you’re permanently wiring the pickup, it can be connected to onboard controls just like any other pickup. A technician can add a volume pot (100k is recommended for balanced output) or a tone circuit if you want onboard shaping.

For multi-output setups, it’s usually best to keep the dedicated breakout or Y-split outside the guitar, so you retain independent string signals. For simpler single-output installs, onboard controls are an effective way to blend the Submarine with your existing guitar electronics.
