It's possible version 1 was a development board that was never put into production.Originally Posted by jamie123

yep maybe,it would seem from comparing the 2 pcbs thats my transistors are different,the ones in the mk3 are BD380 transistors where as mine are in metal cans,i have 2 marked BF X85 and 2 marked BC461 87742.
what the difference is and if ones better than another is over my head.

The top two are 220pF (0.22nF). The bottom one is 10nF.

The Wimas are none polarised.
Best type of capacitor to stick in there is either polystyrene or polypropylene dielectric.
However you only need a low voltage rating of capacitor, the problem will be finding small ones as most of this type of capacitor have large voltage ratings and will be correspondingly large in size.
Good luck
PS may be best to try it as is and see what the improvement is so far.
I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan
