Hell yes you can do that - and it works well! Not only are you bleeding off some of the high end, you;re adding all the fuzziness of the piezo low end. try it, you'll like it.
I came up with it in my shop a few months ago and called it "active-passive tone control" (as opposed to true active tone control that uses a pre-amp). But, when I googled I found I wasn't the first person to think of this by a long shot. Anyway, bottom line is that a piezo is basically seen as a capacitor by the circuit. So, solder it in just like you would a capacitor, but use longer leads so you can glue the piezo somewhere useful (like on the inside of the lid)

Nice box and another superb build mate, first class, all the best mate, Chris. :)
Awesome!! Thanks Bob!
