I was just bein a bit curious,  whats the difference between mellow filters and normal filter controls?

Mellow filtering produces Jack Daniel's and normal filtering produces Moonshine!!!

I've asked the same question a couple of times, but never got any clear answer either. Would be interested to know as well.
 
My guess has always been that it means the steepness is less than 12 dB per octave like it is on the standard filter.

No,no, no.  
 
As a Bourbon guy, I can tell you that Jack Daniels is Fender.  If you are looking for the Alembic of Bourbons, try Blanton's or Rowan Creek or maybe Bookers.

a mellow filter is a mellower WAH than the normal filter.

Adriaan, based on Keavin's description, it sounds like that's a pretty darn good guess.

One thing I'm not so fond of with the LPF is that you very quickly lose all brightness. I would assume that a filter with less than 12 dB drop-off per octave leaves more brightness.

I hate to be picky (well, OK, not really), but I don't believe Jack Daniel's is bourbon.  It lacks the minimum 51% corn in the mash for that designation.  And while I seldom drink distilled spirits any more, when I do it's Maker's Mark.

I'm slowly progressing through a bottle of Highland Park 12 yo myself.

this one has mellow filtershttp://www.alembicguitars.net/info/hkguitar.html

what about another toggle which switches the normal filters to mellow along with the standard 2 or 3 position Q switches.
 
On the alcohol note(since I am fom the UK) Laphroig - a smoky peaty malt whiskey from the Isle of Jura in Scotland is my choice

'Laphroag'. I'm quite partial to a dram or two myself ;-)
