Not having parts (nor money) for a box, jacks and a rotary switch I took a cheap guitar cable and junk alligator clip to test the tonal effects of added capacitance to a pickup.
Hearing what 270pf and 560pf do with the bridge pickup on my Glarry Tele, I think I could have avoided b
uying a set of "better" pickups.

At the opposite end of the spectrum, I also find quite a wide variation in pickup bass response - but that's down to a set of much more complex effects than load capacitance, I fear...
