Re: H/H/H wiring
It's great that you have the tone pot itself grounded - you would have additional noise issues if you did not. However, that little piece is not what is providing the grounding of the tone pot with the rest of the components. Routing part of a component to itself like you did with that little piece, does nothing, sorry. What is providing the grounding/connectivity that your multi-meter picked up, is that yellow wire soldered to the side of your tone pot.
For the capacitor to have an effect on the signal, you need to connect that middle lug that i circled, and send that to ground. *specifically* the lug that i circled. Same pic attached to this reply for clarity. This is completely separate from whether the tone pot itself is grounded to the rest of the components in the guitar (which is what the yellow wire is currently providing).
I need to ponder more about your jack connection (#2). I will get back to you shortly on that.
