Couple Questions... I have pics

Just had a couple questions about my LP... Opened her up this morning, wanted to check her out and see if she actually was chambered. This is the first time I've done this, basically I'm wondering

a. Is she chambered? I got some pics, I'm thinking she is. Weighs in at 9.6 pounds on the bathroom scale, and is louder acoustically than some of the non-chambered Customs I've played. Basically, I think so but I'm not sure, although I think one of you on here can tell.

b. I'm going to order some NOS capacitators on Ebay, as I rarely leave my tone and volume controls on full. What do you guys recommend? I was looking at either Bumblebees or Black Beautys. I'm not sure which are the capacitators in the picture... can someone point them out?

c. When I DO order my caps, do I need to worry about the voltage rating? I know they should be around 0022uf, but is it ok if they're 600 volts?

d. Also thinking about getting a treble bleed kit... my friend says it helps the tone alot. What is this exactly?

Thanks a ton guys.
