Hello there,

Recently I've purchased a 15" Mark I combo (hardwood/wicker cane) with all the trimmings (100w/EQ/reverb). I'm super happy with it, the larger speaker really rounds out a Telecaster in a very organic, 'real' sounding way that just can't be achieved quite as nicely with an EQ.

Anyway, I was hoping some of you would be able to help me ascertain a bit more information about it.

It has "09/77" written on the bottom of the chassis in magic marker (I'm guessing that means September 1977?) however I can't seem to find a serial number on the back panel. Where should I be looking and what can I find out from these numbers?

I'm really just checking the age of it. Also, I believe the speaker is an EV (judging by the size of the magnet!) but I can't see any writing on it, so that would be something I'd like to find out too.
 
Take some pictures and post them. They will help out tremendously.
 
As requested... I've done my best with a lamp and my phone, hopefully they're of help.

The FX loop is a post-production modification.

That's "9/77" written just next to the reverb cable.

Anything more specific?
