The classic combination would be 500k pots with a .047uF cap. That said, I would suggest experimenting with smaller...much smaller....tone caps. Try .022uf (another popular option) and then go even lower. if you're someone who doesn't use the tone knob a lot, you may enjoy something like a 10,000pf, or even lower....5000pf....2000pf. Take your pick. They're cheap and easy to try. The lower capacitor value will spread out the function of the tone knob and generally keeps things on the brighter sound.

It's capacitor by the way.

I'm sorry, Alan, but I have to disagree with this. The whole pickup/volume/tone/capacitor arrangement in a guitar is actually kind of complex. You're dealing with an RLC circuit, and the effect of all these little bits turns the whole mess into something of a resonant filter (with the pickups as the inductive element, and the pots/caps as the R and C elements). Changing any part of the arrangement has the effect of changing the resonant frequency of the circuit, and potentially the Q as well. There's no way to get a small tone cap to sound like a big tone cap, anymore than you can make an AM radio pickup shortwave.

I think you're taking it a little bit to the extreme. You're not going to notice much, if any difference when the tone is all the way up, with different capacitors. How do I know this? I've changed tone caps. Sure it is part of the circuit, sure there might be technically some difference electronically, but sonically? Meh. I think a potentiometer value change would have a much more noticable impact than a tone cap change.
