.068uf Mustard Caps. What to do with them?

[masahs]

I ordered a bunch of mixed mustard caps off of ebay for an amp I am building. After separating out the one's I will use, I have eight .068uf caps left over (note: not .68uf).

Does anyone know of an amp that uses this value or if anyone has used them in place of another value? I am not sure what to do with them. OR would anyone like to buy them off of me? I would hate to see them go to waste.

Thanks

If they're 300-400V rated, you can use them as output coupling caps (PI to power tubes) in place of the normal JTM45/1986 Bass values of .1, and you would very likely never hear the difference.

Interesting... and they are 400v. I might just keep them and try them out.

Thanks!

Anybody have any other suggestions?

I could be wrong, but check old Orange schematics . I think 0,068 was a value used in old Orange amps.

Cool, thats good to know, ive been given bags of them in that value, i have been given a box load of NOS mustards last week, so hopefully i can find some uses for those too
I have been going through them and have found myself 8 of the precious 0.022uf caps @400v and 11x 0.027uf which will do me fine for a few more builds, i have also got some 0.1, 0.01, 0.033 and some 0.018 which can be used in some places of the circuit.

However most of the other caps are not much use in guitar, such as some 0.33 0.39 0.47 0.0027 0.0012 0.0015 0.0068 0.047 0.0047 0.082 0.0082 0.0056 0.056 etc

I also found 3 really nice metallised film capacitors made in germany branded "EROFOL II" in the values of 0.022, i get the impression they are a top quality audio cap, perhaps i should keep them for hi-fi?
