So I have a Boss DS-1 that I'm modifying, and it originally had 50v electrolytic caps in it, and the DIY purchasing parts section tells me to get 16-35v caps. Which ones should I get? Will the 16-35v ones work? Thanks! :)

The pedal runs off 9 volts, so any value above that is fine. I've read that using capacitors with twice the value of the voltage is good practice, but even 16v should be fine. I modded my DS-1 and used something like 35 (can't remember exactly) so you're good.
