Where do you get the caps?

[IbanezGuy88]

Hey guys I've been wanting to mod my modules and I never really knew where to buy the caps.

Mouser and many other electronic suppliers online or just call Eganter and Bruce or Frank can send you what you may want!

There's also a ton of listings on Ebay for parts. One guy is selling them as "direct replacements" but I'm sure you'd save a bit by getting them at a local electronics shop.

I got my capacitors, LEDs, and even some Marshall-esque and chicken head knobs from a website called "Small Bear Electronics"...

I saw one of those E-bay listings, the guy wanted like $4 for two 80 cent capacitors...

Thanks for the info. I'm buying some parts there as well. Good prices.

Follow up:

I ordered five 3mm blue LEDs from Small Bear and today I received five 5mm LEDs. They obviously were in a hurry and either read the order wrong or pulled it wrong. I've emailed them about their mistake and I'm waiting for a reply.

In an unrelated event, I ordered a replacment IC for a JCM800 from Mouser Electronics. It shipped in about 3 days.

In the future I'll probably just deal with Mouser.

Another follow up:

The guy at Small Bear acknowledged their mistake and said he's shipping the correct LEDs. Funny thing is, I already ordered from Mouser, and received them a day ago. Mouser ships incredibly fast.

Mouser is great if you know what you're looking for. It's really easy to order the wrong part when they have 50 kazillion of them.
