Are the Craig Anderton Variable State Filter and the SF-2 Cousins?

Mr. George Mundy Installed a version of his Pluto Filters into MY old Bass;

  At that time  I had the opportunity to try out a Pluto Pedal during a visit with Mr. Mundy.  
The pedal was designed to work in two directions. I had fun playing with it.  It is a variation of a STATE VARIABLE FILTER.  
He did this at about the time that Mr. Phil Lesh was getting his Osage Alembic wired with a more substantial electronics package.I remember seeing Phil's Bass on the work bench in progress.
 
    In my opinion the Alembic SF-2 is the most useful and musical variation of a  STATE VARIABLE FLTER to date.  
   
        A handy little device______I love mine .

I  recently spoke with the current owner of my old Guild/Alembic with Pluto Filters ( see  the link this thread my post #1541) and told me that he is in contact with Mr.George Mundy. I have to add that Mr. Mundy was really cool at the time when he installed his filters into my Bass . In my experience he is a highly intelligent and knowledgeable gentleman . I at the time was an audio engineering student with many questions. I am still grateful for his patience that he exhibited towards me. Thanks George________  I would still have that Bass if I would not have gone through that period of difficult financial times in 1978!

Ive been trying to find a way to contact George for some time now, I wasn't sure if he was still around or not.
