Thanks I'm putting an order together of parts. Gonna go ahead and replace all the caps. I'll get the resistors as well.
thanks

In restoring a couple 151's I found a real issue are the wafer style tube sockets used for all tubes except output. These are kind of fragile (or I lack patience). You might be doing well to just replace them too. At that point, it's a pretty substancial rebuild, I get that. It's a nice amp once done, the output iron is pretty nice. However, hum is a bit of an issue on phono (uses AC heating) and I'm not a big fan of the PECs used in the tone controls. The last grievance I have is that all the inputs except Phono are padded down heavily by resistor dividers, and I'd prefer direct in without that (easy to remove).
I wouldn't be using the built in phono. Yeah those old wafers didn't hold up well over time. I just replaced some in another amp.
thanks
