Ok, i've never modded anything and have no clue about electronics so im thankful for your help.

That was my plan to begin with, have some components with different values to switch between to find the sound i like, was just concerned that it would matter if i couldent get a hold of those silver mica caps.

Just orderd the components, so will start this mod next week.
Thanks for everything

Thanks for the response.

So in your opinion this mod is a waste of time and money, or is it just the quality of the component that doesnt matter?

I have never listned to a modded amp, i have only heard youtube clips, and the sound is different than what my amp is putting out.
Could that be because they changed the speaker (and tubes) and that it is recorded through a mic?

Hello everyone.
I will start to apologize for my english, i'm a Swede so bare with me.

Im sitting here researching how to modify my peavey classic 30 combo amp, and i found a good guide called the blue mod.
The guide links to several webpages that carries all the electrical components to make this modification.
The problem im having is that these websites are all located in the states, and i live in Sweden.
I've made an order from a big firm that carries lots of different condenser/capacitators/resistors, but some of the components needed are not available.

The salesman at the company suggested that i could buy a different kind of capacitator, the question i have is, will work if i switch to the ones they had available?
The capacitators i need are called mica capacitator, and they are ranging from 270pf to about 1000pf, the answer i got to my request from the salesman is:

The capacitators you needed are of the mica-type, they are called glimmercapacitators. The closest thing to these capacitators that we have in stock are polypropylen. Do you want this type or axial (round with pins from both sides)?

I hope i'm making myself understood, there are some words in english that i dont know if i've translated correctly.

Thankful for help.

Regards

The problem is i cant find all the parts from the same vendor...
I live in sweden and antique electronic supply isn't carrying all the parts that is needed.  xP
But i'm thinking of ordering what they got and try to find the rest here.

Hello.

I'm new to this forum and guitar amp builds in general and i would like some tips on building an amp.

I do not have that much knowledge on amps, but i want to build a tubeamp.
I will use the amp to play with some friends and i need enough power to be heard over drums bass and another guitar.

The amp cannot be to expensive, the cheaper the better  , and i want it to sound something like the old guns n roses (marshall sound)
I have read some forums but i find kits for home use or for concerts....

I have looked at these amps, is this something anyone could recomend?
