I got this italian Jen Crybaby super, and I'm trying to figure out how old it is. I read here on this forum that you can date them from the internal pot, but I can't figure out what the numbers man. There is some solder on some of the numbers, so I can't read them.

The pot reads 1347923 BA811 Solder8 100k, and the was serial is 250-422. From the numbers, I digured it has to be 81 or 79.
Yes, I know there will be jokes about dating a wha, but I hope someon could help me...

Is there a name of the manufacturer on the pot?

Try this page, it's very helpful in most cases http://www.provide.net/~cfh/pots.html

Your pot appears to be made by Centralab, 23rd week of 1979.

Yeah, it is, isn't it? I found that one day when I was trying to figure out who made the speakers in one of my amps.
