I'd recommend the Panasonic FC series caps.

As for the tantalum caps, I'm not ready to write them off as much as Dave, but I haven't had them burst into flames before.

Kustom was about the only company using them back in the day for guitar amps. I have not seen any great failure rate in any of the Kustoms that I've seen. I see more failures in regular electrolytics of the same age than of the tantalums.
