Hofner 182

Hello all,
My Hofner 182 projects going well so far!
Got to a wall with the pickup wiring though.

I unfortunately have two different but both hofner pickups to use, one from a 182 and one from a violin bass.

One has three wires coming out of it (Violing Bass)
The other has two wires, one bare and one coated (182)

Just wondered if they can both be used to together?

and if so, has anyone got any advise for how i would wire it?

Cheers:bassist:
