No bakelite capacitors from what I see. Two large "cans" for electrolytic. Some tubular capacitors that are polarized (at least that's what the black stripe implies to me), a silver-mica capacitor - that's about it. I'm trying to determine if replacing the tubular caps with a mylar film capacitor is OK.
