where can i get these for the Blue Magic Pedal?

470pF cap silver mica
530pF cap silver mica
.001uF cap silver mica

4.7k resistor
6.8k resistor

I'm new at this and I became TOTALLY lost on the Mouser site.

Also, what's the best way to "wire" two caps in parallel on a pre made circuit board?

If you could swap for poly film instead of mica he has them.

As for the parallel caps, if the hole is big enough and you have the space you should be able to put one in like normal, and then just stuff another one in the same way then solder.

Circuit Specialists has 470pf and 510pf 300v caps. .001uf is 1000pf. A metal film .001uf cap would work just as fine or better. You can sub ceramic caps for the 470pf and 530pf, it will sound a little grittier. You may not have the room for mica caps. Check their sizes on the link.

For resistors, $3.00 per 1000:
