Here’s the mods I used for my G&L L2000 bass. I had 3 pot holes and 3 switch holes and I didn’t want to drill. I used passive pickups since I hate batteries.

Looks great.

I’m still loving this mod, BTW. I’m amazed more guitarists don’t take advantage of it, especially on humbucker-equipped guitars.

Never seen any one use a Value that Big before 0.22uF (220nF) and a switch to add in another one making 440nF
most I’ve seen on a Bass is 100nF.

As for the Circuit, you are using 4 Pots there, so possible of 4xPush/Pull Switch Pots. From that you can have the Pickups on both sides North/South/Series/Parallel, as for adding in Caps on the Tone, could use a 2P2T (on/on/on) Toggle and pick 3 values. (100, 47 and 10nF)
