That switch is for pre-amp voicing.

Position 1 : 1.5k + .47Uf
Position 2 : 1.5K
Position 3 : 1.5K + 25Uf

Thought that was what it was.
Looks like this is instead of the bright switch?

How does the .47uf work out?

Nice! I like the black boards. Could be the resolution (or my aging eyes) but what is the shrinked wrapped resistor connected to a ground lug in front of the cap stack for?

Oh I get it now! Nice trick. I did not see any lead heading off to the right and thought there was just a resistor sitting there on a ground lug looking pretty with nothing to do. :)

Very nice! Tight and ballsey in high gain....but clean and full at lower guitar volume settings (I assume for the La Grange intro part)!

Can you brief us on your recording equipment approach and set up?

Well done!!!
