Premium Silverface Overhaul Kits
These premium silverface overhaul kits offer everything you need to get your silverface Fender amplifier sounding & performing it’s best!! This is our famous premium overhaul kit.
Premium Overhaul Kits include parts & instructions for:
- Full Electrolytic Recap: (2 x F&T power filters, 1 x MOD power filter, Nichicon for the preamp & power tube cathodes). Dropping resistors included.
- Signal Cap Upgrade (Mallory 150M series standard, Jupiter upgrade available)
- Includes Outside Foil Upgrade
- Preamp cathode bypass resistor optimization
- Noise Fix 100K plate resistors
- Power tube resistor upgrade (makes life easier for that 6V6!)
Premium overhaul kits include high quality F&T filter caps. We are also using a 40uf MOD power filter for the main cap, specifically selected in order to get the perfect value for this first filter stage, without sacrificing sound or performance quality! All preamp tube cathode bypass & bias caps are high quality Nichicon.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the announced obsolesce and ceased production of carbon comp resistors by the larger manufacturers, we have been forced to stop using carbon comp resistors, and switched to a very high quality carbon film resistors as necessary. These specific CF resistors are now considered to be NOS, made in Japan (the company has since relocated manufacturing to another country), and the best sounding modern CF resistor available (not to be found on any of the standard amp parts suppliers websites).
We prouldy offer “Mallory” 150M series capacitors for the signal/coupling caps. These caps perform exceptionally well in vintage Fender circuits, providing warm, vintage tone; GREATLY enhancing the sustain, tone & performance of your silverface amplifier! Top shelf Jupiter Condenser upgrades available.
Copies of the original blackface schematic & layout for your amp are included.
