Use a 500k, you'll want that extra brightness with how thick the pickup is. The Monson is Alder / Cherry body and Maple neck which is pretty similar woods to your ESP, and using 500k pots its was just right. Taking the tone pot out of the equation basically is just like leaving it on all the time, or you could just use a 500k pot with a treble bleed mod. I think that would probably be your best bet.
