Just a quick question. I use different value tone caps to change the roll off response. I'll switch .047 for .022, or vice versa, or just play around with different values and different configurations until I like what I hear.
Looking at the diagrams on the SD web site, I noticed they use a shared filter cap for both tone pots. Caps are cheap, so why not use independent filter caps? Is there an advantage to sharing a cap when using single coils or stacks? Other than having them connected to the exact same capacitance rather than two caps which, although they are the same value, vary within tolerance, electrically they look the same.
