High Quality Vintage Amplifier Recap Kit from Fromel Electronics

Vintage Fender Princeton Recap Kit

This Recap Kit includes a full set of high quality electrolytic capacitors to be installed in your 1960’s-1970’s vintage Fender Princeton amplifier. The function of the filter capacitors is to reduce the noise and hum of the high voltage power supply in the circuit of your amplifier. Capacitors in the cathode bypass maintain and control frequency response in the pre-amp stage and effect tonal qualities within your pre-amp tubes. The capacitor in the bias circuit helps to regulate and maintain proper bias between your power tubes. Over time the capacitors in your amplifier will degrade, causing issues with noise, hum and frequency response in your output.

Your vintage amplifier will benefit greatly by replacing your old capacitors with new, high quality capacitors.

Replacing your capacitors can reduce hum and noise in your vintage amplifier as well as revive tone and keep your frequency response alive.

Why spend hundreds of dollars leaving your amp stranded in the shop for weeks when you can do it yourself?

This Recap Kit includes full-color, easy to follow instructions and the following parts:

1 x CE Manufacturing 20-20-20-20uf / 475v Can-Cap

4 x Sprague Atom 25uf / 25v Electrolytic Capacitors

1 x 5w Resistor to safely drain your existing capacitors

All you need is basic soldering skills to perform the installation.

Use this kit to keep your vintage amp running as smooth as possible!

The included CE Manufacturing Can-Cap was produced on original Mallory machinery used in the original production of vintage Fender amplifier components and manufactured to exact vintage specifications in the USA.

F&T capacitors are the highest quality available on the market. German based Fischer & Tausche have been producing high quality capacitors for over 70 years. F&T capacitors are known for their great tone and reliability. We use these F&T capacitors in all our custom amp builds and in replacement of all stock amplifier capacitors.

Sprague Atom capacitors are top of the line capacitors made in the USA known for their vintage quality. These capacitors placed throughout the cathode bypass will restore tone in your pre-amp and help the tonal characteristics of your pre-amp tubes shine through once again. Replacing the bias capacitor will help better regulate the bias of your power tubes and assure they maintain proper bias.

The kit supports both “Blackface” and “Silverface” Champ, Vibro-Champ and Bronco amps with the AA764 or AB764 circuits.
