I noticed there is a 1uF 25V cap in there, and it is connected to the 4 ohm tap. On the ampgarage forum I read that someone changed the cap on his Bluesmaster presence control from a .1uF 250V film cap to a .47uF cap and got good results, getting rid of a high-mid spike. My OTS already has a higher value cap than that in there, but if I tripled it's value to a 3.3uF would I see similar results? Has anyone tried this? I am also interested in the effect of moving the NFB to the 8 Ohm tap, if anyone has experimented.

Smaller the cap more spike you will notice...
Presence cap bleeds off the hi frequencies in the NFB to ground... smaller the cap less hi end goes to ground = more spike

something like that
