    Description

    Up for sale here is this rebuild kit for a Sprague Tel-Ohmike TO-4.  At this point the original Sprague Tel-Ohmikes are over 60 years old, and the old parts are weak and failing, with leaky capacitors, crumbling cords, and drifted resistors.  We will make them new again!
    This kit includes a new replacement AC power cord, replacement film and electrolytic capacitors, and a new 82k ohm 5W resistor to replace resistor R8.  It also includes an instruction sheet to explain how to install everything.  This does not include any tubes or other resistors.  New caps are Nichicon electrolytic capacitors and yellow film capacitors--you will get the exact parts shown in the picture.  These are all high-
    quality brand new genuine parts--these are the same parts I use when I rebuild test gear.  The parts included are mostly exact replacements, but some are close modern equivalents--in this case an 82k resistor replaces an 83k and two .01 uf caps replace a .02 uf cap.
    I will include a surprisingly well-written instruction sheet, but rebuilding tube gear is somewhat complicated, and you should know what you're doing and have a decent soldering iron.  This kit will not fix everything that could be wrong with your equipment, but it will certainly help.  Please see my pictures for details.
    Hey, here's something neat:  Want to get this kit for FREE?  Seriously?
    The original capacitors used in the Sprague Tel-Ohmike included a number of bumblebee capacitors, which can be used in guitars.  I sell these.  If you buy this kit, then after installing it, you ship me all the parts you removed from your Sprague Tel-Ohmike, with nice long leads on the bumblebee caps, I will completely refund you for this kit, including shipping.  That's right, you can get the kit for FREE.
    US shipping and handling is , and international is , no matter what quantity you buy.  All my small parts are set up for combined shipping, so just use the "add to cart" feature and then check out all at once, and it will combine shipping.  If you have any questions, please ask.
