what do you personally would like to improve on the NT1?

IIRC the 4562 is not compensated for unity-gain...Would be good for summing amps and maybe mic pre, but not for tone controls and to be discussed for post-fader amp.Then the NJM4560 is your choice, but better noise (and slew rate) performance are only relevant when there IS some gain.
Probably not. With 220K resistors the loss with be close to 6dB. You could increase them to 470K with little change in the loss and a noticeable reduction in interaction. You could increase them to 1Meg but then you get increased loss and possibly loss of top end due to cable capacitance (but this may not matter for bass). I would suggest trying 470K.

.... I must be thick, but I don't get it...So if you have a closer look at the highlighted area you will see a 47uF electrolytic cap beside an 15k power-resistor which gets hot during use - sometimes both even touching each other. You can be sure that this electrolytic will be dried out with time. Even if you leave the 47uF in place and bend it above R10, R11 it would be better (and a cure).
Language barrier, perhaps...?....
