Great sound, but needs improvements

I ordered this kit a few days ago.
Building was very easy, the PCB has a very good quality.
After comparing the original HM-2 schematic with this one, I detected a few flaws:
- the 10p feedback capacitors need to be 100p
- the tone pots need to be 10k lin, otherwise the tone controls have no effect between 0 and 8
- one filter caps have a higher rate originally (C19 / 100µ), although this is neglectible
- a feedback capacitor is missing (C21 / 470p bridging R22 / 3k3)
- a filter capacitor is missing (C22 / 47µ connected from the node where R30, R8, R12 and R13 are connected to the ground), although this is neglectible
