I suspect you are right on the money with transformer manufacturer. As to the caps I just like some of the original branding. I would not wish to desolder and replace the parts once assembled. I think the name on the faceplate is perfect, and will stay  that way. I hope NIK is justifiably proud of this effort, I would be glad to play out with an amp with Ceriatone on it. I think the Orange holy grail caps are just plain ugly and do not go with one of the cleanest looking ckt's I have ever seen. The solder joints alone are worth a photo on the site.

I should preface with I hope I am not being impolite in these questions. I am interested in ordering one of these and wanted to know what the transformers are that Nik uses. I also wanted to know if it is possible to have filter caps that do not have the ceriatone branding?
