    I would hesitate at the omission of the tone pot as well; how do you find the sweet tonal spot without the pot? I don't see any advantage in a setup like this - I used a volume pedal as well when I was gigging and left the guitars volume at about 95% as I believe that the things got to be running flat out to get full benefit of the pickups, but I didn't want to lose any flexibility.
    YMMV, of course....
