Vintage Fender Vibrolux - Pt. 3 | Repurpose & Rethink

This series I take you guys along for the ride as I explore my new amp, a vintage blackface Fender Vibrolux. Episode 3 we try to figure out the blue molded cap situation, and the dual 25uF cap dilemma of aesthetics vs function.

*I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL AMP TECH, I am learning so please pass along any wisdom you've got and/or point out where I went wrong. Thanks!*
