Hey guys,

Is there a special solder I should be lookin at for caps? I am getting ready to swap out caps on my MS series and want to know what the best solder to use would be?

Thanks.

Lance

After trying a lot of stuff over the years, I now use Kester 44 all the time.

Try eBay. There are several new spools, and some partial spools. Depending on what you need, a partial spool may be just fine for you.
