Piezo pickups?

NickPiezo pickups?
I've been thinking of making a truly basic guitar with minimal controls and gizmos. I am drueling over some warmoth kits. The simplest I can think of is a guitar with piezo pickups at the bridge, and no more. No pickups on the body at all, and no volume or tone controls. I think this could look pretty cool, but I have never used a piezo pickup and wonder if it just ends up sounding like crap. I know I'd be severely limited in sounds, but with effects and various amp settings it may still be fun. Any thoughts?
