Hi.
There is no need to fit Silver Mica caps in an audio amplifier. Granted they are stable etc but fitting them to me is OTT. In a guitar amp that has rather limited frequency response and no NFB I'd be more worried about the circuit design than fitting caps that won't benefit a design that is to be honest not anything approaching HiFi.
Vishay polypropylene caps are pretty decent and I'd defy anyone to tell the difference audibly between SM caps any Poly ones, unless the audiofools brought their super sensitive, highly responsive, 100% balanced Lugs with them.
