Has anyone used the Q Filter with a Bill Lawrence L500XL?

[presa_tito]

Right now I have this pickup in the bridge and only have a vol. control. I'm going to drill another hole to put a tone contol in as well. I'm just curious about this q filter though. If I install it, it will always have to be on and take over the tone control. So I am wondering if anyone likes it. It is supposed to create great tonal variation.
Thanks.

Here's a thread that gives a little more info as to what it is, and how its used.

“The Q-Filter is an LCR network - a 1 henry, low Q noisefree inductor in series with a .02 micro farad cap in parallel with an 8 kilo ohm resistor. Wired like a cap to a tone pot, you can gradually decrease the impedance of the circuit but maintaining a slightly higher impedance below 1100 Hertz. Also available without the cap and the resistor to gradually decrease the impedance of the pickup.”

I've read the technical description and was just seeing if people thought it was a good addition.
