2 Vintage 1950s Sprague PIO Bumble Bee .022 400v Guitar Tone Capacitors Les Paul

Description: This is an exceptionally nice matched pair of two (2) Original Sprague .022mfd 400v PIO Bumble Bee Capacitors! Both values measure .030 according to my Sencore LC75. It’s rare to find PIO Bumble bees that have drifted this little in value! Both capacitors also have nice long original leads. These will work in a guitar tone-circuit, but due to having DC leakage will NOT work at their rated voltage (as used in a tube amp circuit). Sold as is due to their vintage. Note: for those measuring caps with a DMM, my Fluke DMM shows both of these as measuring a little higher around .046 / .048 but I have displayed the LC75 results in this listing since it’s a calibrated purpose-built device for analyzing capacitors to a high level of accuracy. This is just in full disclosure / for what it’s worth. The photos are of the actual capacitors being sold. Please ask any questions before purchasing.
