The capacitors for the screen supply and one of the 3 40uf caps that are used in the preamp section were all put on one turret board and mounted above the transformer.

there is enough clearance to do this in the later vt-40s or any of the v-2s. Something to consider if you have one and want to recap it.
Hey Hangman! I have migrated here from the ampegV4 forum due to all the spam traffic and maintenance. I also have a high quality scan of an original V4-B schematic from the inside of the the amp if you want to add it to your collection.

I have been out of a job and working on more and more amps lately. Hopefully I will start to get more of a local following, If I can do enough and make if worth while I hope to one day open up my own guitar/amp repair shop here.

Keep up the post/photos and good work!
