2 channel dual rec serial R-007683..... How old?

[Badbrad666]

Hello! As of today I'm the proud owner of a 2 channel Dual Rec Wow this amp sounds a lot different than my 3 channel DR. Not as fizzy and a lot smoother.

I am just trying to figure out roughly how old this head is.
The serial number is R-007863 hope someone can help me!
Thanks

I'd say roughly end of 1996 to beginning of 1997.

It should be dated inside of the chassis next to the tech's initials who signed off on the head if you're looking for a more accurate date.
