Help me identify this Ampeg 810E

[dukeisdog]

Picked up this Ampeg 810e today off a guy for $250. The cab sounds great, but needs a new caster, and needs to be retolexed. Can anyone tell me anything about this cab from this info?

The serial number appears to be BQWDN50106

Bump.. I can't post pics, it says they're too big. Hopefully someone can help.

if you're trying to date it, the easiest way would be to pull out one of the speakers and use the code on the back.

obviously this assumes the speakers are original.

whatever year it was made, it's a greal deal for 250 bucks !

Agreed!!!

For $250 bucks you got a helluva deal regardless when it was built!


Congrats!

Its name is John and there is a warrant out for its arrest here in Ontario. Charged with disturbing the peace.

Looks like May 2001.
I found this in another thread.

"Digit 5 is the year of manufacture
H=1995
I=1996
J=1997
K=1998
L=1999
M=2000
N=2001

Digit 6 is supposed to be the Month number."

I have photobucket, I just use my phone for everything. I'll post pics tomorrow, but this cab was well worth $250.
