Yes. My 303 is 1970, and never been opened up. Not in regular use now -
but did rig it up the other day for a party elsewhere. Sounded as
normal. It was in daily use up until about 5 years ago.


Still worth some new caps you can get 4700 uF in where the 2000 uF's
used to go..


Why would I replace caps on an amp that still sounds OK? No audible hum.

Bet PW would have used them had they been around
