Yes. mouser electronics parts #583-mp258 is a up grade replacment,just remember to apply more heat sink compound under it before you screw it down.A even better replacement would be to install 4 super fast recovery doides #583-sf36. you will have to mount these on two terminal strips so that most of their lead lengh is left. the lead is part of there heat sink!If you put these in, you will love the how natural and clear the tone improvment will be.

Thanks AGAIN Steve! I will give it a shot. My home is starting to look like Grandpa Munster's laboratory (only with lotsa Kustom body parts laying around, and the smell of soldering fumes).

Watch out for those soldering fumes, there are lead vapors in that smoke.
