DCH	Re: Nichicon VX Series filter caps??? Thanks Mike, Paul, MikeB and Whit. I might just give those Nichicons a try, to be different. Glad you enjoyed "The Guitar Magazine" (UK), Mike. I'd really like to see it get around the USA more, but distribution for overseas mags in North America is a real rat's nest. We can only get about 5,000 copies on the shelves over there (even though we sell some 25,000 here, which is not bad for the UK) so they're pretty few and far between by US standards. Amp modding and DIY-ing by players in the UK is pretty far behind what it is in the US, but we're using a new "Amp Tech" column to try to turn the tide, and Brinsley Schwarz's current three-part series for us on modding and 'blackfacing' silverface Fenders is getting a great reception... ... sadly, though, the company is still just working to get our new Web site going, so none of this is on the Web yet. Well, thanks again for the help. Cheers, Dave
