Bill (exray),

I was fairly confidant that the closest value would be acceptable. Thanks for the hand holding, I am new at this and didn't want to make a incorrect assumption.

Looking at the schematic it appears that the .015 - .015 Double Bakelite caps are in the AC circuit. Shows that it leads to the on/off switch...
The on/off switch is intermittent.. always will turn on , but sometimes will not turn off, my first thought is that the tone control/Ac switch is defective, could the issue be with one or both of the .015 caps ?
