I have nearly all the parts to finish off my MXR Phase 100 pedal except 3 capacitors. On the schematic 3-15uf elctrolytics are called out. Well guess what! I don't have them in my parts box ::) the caps in question are c-14/15/17 on: http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/diagrams/mxr_p100_lo.gif
I have some 10mfd's  and some 22mfd's in my parts box that could be used. Is either one of these values acceptable as a substitute for the 15mfd? any input would be appreciated.

  Not as good at reading layouts as schematics...takes too much sstudy...
  Probably these are not in the signal path, IWCase using 22uf's [with adequate voltage ratings] will work fine.
  If they are in the signal path or somehow directly influence signal somehow, 22uf compared to 15uf is most likely hardly a noticable amount.
Convention creates following, following creates convention.
