If you are into this hobby, it's not too hard to take a look and fill in our stash with commonly used parts to take the sting out of a S&H charge. When in doubt, you can always order a few 10,22,47,100 mf electrolytics @400 or 450 V, and you'll not be sory down the road. Get s s**t load of safety caps if you think you are going to restore many sets. The value is really not all that important, just that they fail open.
