This is strange...
According to the '70 price list the 595 was a 100 series PA system. Don't see any mention of a J anywhere with it but who knows. Where J does get involved however the cab is listed as having 2 - 15" Jensen speakers and a horn...hmmm maybe Pleat or someone else can shed some light on that part of things. That being said the amp should have four channels with volume, bass, treble and reverb. The "original" 595 is listed as having a column with 4 - 8" speakers.

Far as caps go if no hum and no signs of deterioration I leave the main filter caps alone. The electrolytics on the driver/output board i almost always replace now because I had two amps out of three bite me shortly after leaving the bench.
