TBX stands for "treble and bass cut". It's kinda like a tone control that works both ways, so you can cut the treble like with a regular tone pot, but also the bass. IIRC it's bypassed at the middle, and turning it up cuts the bass, while turning down cuts the treble. Not 100% sure, though.
That's right, although, iIt's not bypassed at center detent, but it is "at zero" (splitting hairs, I know, but it makes a difference to the tone).
Originally designed for use in conjunction with the Clapton active mid-boost, it's a bit flat with a normal passive circuit. There's a mod on Steve Aloha's www.blueguitar.org that improves the range to be a lot more useful. If you can't get to www.blueguitar.org, you might have to use an anonymous proxy as his site seems to be restricted access from particular IP ranges.

+1 - very genteel and classy. ? Some like a tortoiseshell guard on the bab... sorry...
daphne blue, like the Jags/Mustangs. Mint green works if you're the type that likes blue and green together (and similar colour combos, like orange and red ?).
