The choke was made around a steel bolt, a washer and a nut. That was a Bill Lawrence design. He used the same choke in the L6-S. It's a humbucking choke, having two coils wound in opposite directions. The bolt acted as a core to the inductor.

Do you know what kind of wire and how much turns on this thingie? That could be handy!

That's interesting. I wouldn't have thought it used 42 gauge wire, but who knows? I'll have to try winding one and see how it goes.

Maybe I'll drop Bill Lawrence a line and see if he can shed any info on the inductor. It might be very similar to his Q filters.

one made for me by Curtis to 2.65 kohm dcr (the one that appears light blue) using the Cosmo bobbins:



this switch works very well too and it is cheap:



but modify it to look like this:

Q-filter is 3H, so those are close.

Where do you get that? Can you share a link?

[EDIT] Never mind, I found them. 

This could come in very handy!
