Restore original high-headroom clarity, punchy low-end response, and long-term reliability to your vintage tube amplifier with this specialized Marshall JCM800 Series Filter Replacement Set from EVATCO. Engineered specifically for classic JCM800 chassis, this recapping kit replaces aged, leaky factory electrolytic capacitors with premium high-voltage dual-section and bias capacitors designed to eliminate power supply hum and safeguard your transformers.

Whether you are performing routine maintenance or a full circuit restoration, sourcing high-grade, correctly rated filter capacitors is essential for maintaining dynamic responsiveness, tight bottom-end punch, and bulletproof performance in vintage Marshall circuits.

Circuit & Model Compatibility

This all-in-one capacitor replacement set is tailored specifically to fit classic Marshall JCM800 series models featuring the following circuit designations:

  • Marshall JCM800 Series: 1986, 1987, 2204, 2210, 4010, 4104, 4211, and LATER 2203 & 4103

⚠️ Important Compatibility Warning

Please note that this filter set is NOT compatible with early versions of the JCM800 2203 and JCM800 4103 produced between 1981 and 1987. These early models utilize different capacitor physical sizes and board layouts. Double-check your chassis layout and capacitor mounting style prior to placing your order.

How to Ensure You Are Ordering the Correct Set

Marshall amplifier circuits varied significantly across production runs, even within the same model name. Before purchasing, follow this quick checklist to confirm compatibility:

  1. Inspect the Can Capacitors: Open the chassis or inspect the top layout to confirm your amp uses clamp-mounted dual-section (50uF+50uF) high-voltage filter cans rather than PCB-mounted axial or single radial caps.
  2. Verify Model Number & Version: Confirm your amplifier model is listed above (1986, 1987, 2204, 2210, 4010, 4104, 4211, or LATER 2203/4103). If your amp is an early-era JCM800 2203 or 4103 from 1981–1987, this kit will not fit.
  3. Check Bias Circuit Values: Verify your bias supply circuit uses axial 10uF bias capacitors rated at 150V.
  4. Need Help Confirming? Take clear photos of your amplifier's chassis interior (specifically the existing filter cans and bias circuit) and contact the EVATCO technical support team before purchasing—we are happy to verify your layout.

Parts Included in This Set & Their Circuit Roles

Default components included in this kit are listed below along with their specific function within the Marshall JCM800 power supply and bias sections. We source trusted brands such as F&T / Mersen and Sprague to ensure exact physical fit and high reliability inside classic chassis layouts:

  • 3 x F&T / Mersen 50uF + 50uF - 500V Dual Electrolytic Can Capacitors: Main reservoir, screen grid, and preamp power supply filter cans.
  • 2 x Sprague 10uF - 150V Axial Capacitors: Bias supply filter capacitors for stable, noise-free grid bias voltage to output valves.

Benefits of Recapping Your Vintage Marshall Amp

  • Eliminate Mains Hum & Noise: Original decades-old filter capacitors lose capacitance tolerance and leak DC voltage, introducing frustrating 50Hz/100Hz background hum into your signal path.

  • Restore Tight Low-End & Clean Headroom: Fresh filter sets stabilize high-voltage power rails, preserving tight bottom-end punch, fast transient response, and pristine headroom.

  • Protect Output & Power Transformers: Shorted or dried-out power supply capacitors put heavy stress on rectifiers and transformers—leading to catastrophic component failures.
