WANTED: Sprague Bumblebee .022 @ 400v caps

[Northwinds]

I have a couple Gibson Les Paul's and Explorer's I would like to upgrade tone caps. If you have any and they have been tested for leaks/shorts and are ok, I would be interested. I need approximately 12 of them. PM me please

 

[Gepetto]

Why those particular caps? Are you trying to keep it stock for collectable reasons?

 

[Northwinds]

They work great for the tone I am after. Most Gibson players prefer these and I believe Gibson had them stock in many guitars back in the day

I have 5 NOS 22nF 400V 10% (red-red-orange-white space yellow) in my parts drawers, they read high on my LCR meter (about 28nF). I have a 6th one with a body crack in it.

That one looks like a 330nF cap

The flash kinda washed out the red to look like orange Joe. To Thine eye it is Rd-Rd-Or-Wh-space-yellow.
