ES-335: Which Cap Values do You Prefer?

[jbear]

Hey All,
I am putting a wiring kit in, and trying to decide if I should put a .15 or a .22 for the neck PUP. I'm keeping the 57 Classics at least for now.
What do you like and why?
Thanks folks.
ps. If it matters...three or four different Blackface amps with limited effects (Dumble pedals, Rat clone, a little delay or chorus...very little).

WOMAN TONE! .05..lol..Thats what blackies tone cap had drifted out of tolerance to...then thats what legions of Clapton devotees wanted. Nevermind the old 50 thousand dollar 57 custom color blackie Strat was 9.99/10th's the part of the tone equation..
I like old caps for Gibsons. They are easy enough to source. I like to pair a old cap at values that will let the neck pickup be not too muddy, but I am sorry I forgot the actual cap value.

I like .022 myself. Just my preference though.

Oh, and for the record, the woman tone came from his SG, not his Strat. That happened before he went to Strats exclusively.

I always use .022's in Gibson/Humbucker loaded guitars neck and bridge.
