Kevin, It was a MisPrinted Filter Choke Spec
I bought a LX meter to measure inductance and then measured all of our
TF-150 chokes and both the Fender #036486 and #022707. Even though my
supplier said it was not a misprint, it was. All of the #036486 chokes
measured 3 Henrys and all of the #022707 chokes measured 4 Henrys.

So, go ahead and put it in your Deluxe Reverb. I have corrected my website
to reflect this news, so there won’t be problems in the future.
BTW: If you desire the original Fender part# 022707 let me know and I will
Quote you a price. I’m sure it is more$$ just for the Fender Name.
Thanks, it gave me a good excuse to go buy the LX meter.

Buy the Book!

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
