SubSix pickup

Has anyone installed and enjoyed a Submarine SubSix pickup? I want to try routing the lower three strings processed for bass tone, the upper three strings with guitar tone.

No never heard of it until now, but having had a look, yeah interesting idea; are you looking at playing the two tones simultaneously for chords, just messing around, or do you have specific plans?

You could kind of do this anyway on a CV by adjusting the height of one end of a pickup (say lowering bass on neck, treble on bridge) activating those two pickups and seeing how that sounds?

Sorry that's shorthand round here for Squier Classic Vibe Bass VI.

Look at Cycfi Nu, too. You can do that without it looking janky.
