None of the suppliers I usually use have 51 uF caps or 20k lin. pots.  Anyone have a source for these????
Hopefully a supplier that does not charge $10.00 to ship $2.00 worth of parts.
Thanks!

Why not try a 47uF which is a bit more common? Not sure about the 20k pots though.

ayayay!

Are you sure you don't mean 51 pf?  Does the cap you're looking to replace/install just have a "51" on it?  51 picofarads is very common, but not 51 microfarads.

Tube Screamer heh..!!
In case out of supply someday, just put 50pF and 1pF in parallel, you'll get exactly 51pF.

Yeah but while we're at it, what is a good source for the small caps?  Do you guys like the ones from Small Bear?
