How To Date Dual Rec Serial #'s?

[ruanddu]

I was wondering if someone could help me identify these serial #'s for a dual rectifier head and 4x12 cabinet:

Head: R-007973

Cabinet: C36798

Thank you.

Thanks much. If I am reading it right, the head is Revision G, which was the last batch of rectifiers before the 3 channel came out. Does that sound right?

Yeah Elpelotero was saying something about the host expiring. Now we gotta start bugging Silverwulf for that Recto guide!!! :wink:

Yes, it's a revision G, which was the last revision. But, the Rev. Gs lasted from '94 until '00.

7973 would probably be a late '96, early '97.

Can anyone tell me what the Revision G dual rectifier heads normally fetch on the used market?

Thanks.

The price of all used gear is down ..... it was around $1000 a while back.

Yeah there have been at least 2 different Tremoverbs on the local (Seattle) craigslist for $800, and I have seen a Mark IV head listed for the same price as well. Tough times indeed!

Haha, I've just been a lazy ******* about it. I was nearing completion and lost a lot of data switching laptops. Well, I didn't "lose" the info...it's just not all nice and neat and put into the guide right now. I've just been slow about retyping and formatting it all... :lol:
