Anyone got a 0.047uf cap?

Post by NippleWrestler »

Hey guys, I'm fixing my Mesa and need a 0.047uf cap (film) rated for 500v+. The only ones I can find domestically are ones from Jaycar and an unknown brand that I'm not sure I trust. Would anyone here have something reputable for sale? Mallory, sozo etc. I only need the one which is why I thought I'd ask here rather than dishing out $40 shipping for a capacitor from ebay :(

Nothing wrong with the Jaycar Suntan brand... For $1.20 I would put it now and then get a 'more sophisticated' cap when doing a bulk order, or one of the forum dudes is doing a bulk order...
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

I hit up my amp tech mate and he's got one he can sort me out with. Since it's a mesa boogie I don't want to have to contend with the wiring more than I need to.

These are completely acceptable in my experience. Infact ive used them in more than one amp.
