I agree with Frank on the choice of valves for a stage amp, Top caps are not a good idea. As for a cheap supply of transformers 760V at 200mA+ and EL509s, there are usually a lot of very cheap (20-50 Euros) S.H. Zetagi CB Power amps on the Italian Ebay.
A healthy respect for the high voltages in these types of equipment must always be maintained.
cheers,
Mike.
