Edit: I think it's that way around anyway!)
It's the loading you really need to change, not the cap value - which makes almost no difference when the control is up full.
No, all cap values remove highs - a bigger cap will extend the cut further down into the midrange.

I used a setup like this to trial a variety of resistor values without soldering until I found the result I was after.

So I do sympathise with jaymenon...

It's very simple to add it in, I wouldn't worry about it.
I've had various switches and setups; at the moment my Strat has a switch for the tap on the Diamond Geezer bridge pickup and a knob to get the neck+middle sound but to be honest, as much as I do like that sound, it's a bit too many choices and there's pretty much never been a time where I'd really care about having that over neck+middle. And with the pickup, I pretty much always use the full signal for bridge only and the tapped output for the middle+bridge setting.
So was wondering if others feel the same and generally end up ignoring the options or do some people use them all the time. Maybe if you've had a similar experience to me before it might be a reason not to bother doing this mod?
That said my most recent acquisition has twelve sounds, and cutting down to only six would involve losing a couple of the best ones, so at least for now it can stay with all twelve - it helps that they're very easy to find from the control settings.
jaymenon's question is a bit different since it's just to optimise the sound of what's there already.

There’s not a huge difference between 250K and 300K anyway.
