Hero,
I have recently purchased from Tubedepot.com and from Fliptops.net, both of whom serve the AMPEG market. Tubedepot people were helpful answering questions quickly via email.
Matching the exact uF value is not always required, but you need to make sure the voltage rating is met. You don't want to replace a 450 vdc cap with a 200 vdc. I recently replaced ac filter 20uF 450v caps with 22uF 500v caps, both electolytic. These are used to smooth out the rectified ac plate voltages.
Post updates and pics if you can so we can see what you are doing.
Good luck.
Larry
