Resonance mod for JCM800.. Capacitor help?

I am getting a resonance mod done to my Jcm 800 and I have a few questions about the capacitors. I know that I need to wire up a 1 meg audio taper pot with a .0047 cap and place it between the NFB wire and the 4 ohm leg of my impedance switch. Question is, which type of cap should I use? I dont want to use the ceramic disc style, but I resume that any other .oo47 cap should work. And since there isnt real high voltage going through it, does the voltage rating on them need to be a certain point. Thanks guys!!

Go for Paper-in-oil, they are the holy grail of tone :D.

On a more serious note I guess it really is up to your ears on this one as well. Many claim that higher voltage rating caps sound like they have 'more headroom'. Also in regard to that, a cap that is rated too high usually only makes things better, a cap that is rated too low really doesn't...
