Cap Job

For a complete electrolytic cap job, you should replace all power supply caps under the dog house, the cathode bypass caps and the bias cap.

The following pics show a completed cap job on a '68 Bandmaster Reverb. The first pic shows three original paper wrapped caps and two old replacement caps. The other two caps sitting on top are from other amps I keep around just for show and tell. Note the blistered membranes. These caps need replacement now!
