Title: Help ID an old Power Supply
Post by: longhorncat on September 06, 2012, 07:01:49 PM

I just got this interesting piece.
I was told it was purchased in TX in the early 80's.
To me, it looks a little too neat to be home built.
Anybody know more?

I have one just like it, came with my Series I 73-33. The serial number is on the left hand corner on the back #97

I have one just like it. It came with my Series I 73-33 and has the serial number in the left hand corner on the back #97. Original alembic issue I would say. Is yours numbered?

If this came with bass #27, then it used to belong to John McVie!
Probably not.

The serial number of the instruments and the power supplies do not match.  
 
I'm pretty sure that's a DS-2, but I will check with my dad on that.

I thought that might be the case.  Any guess on the production year?  
It is all stereo - the bass jack doesn't sum to mono.  
 
Thanks

Thank you.
 
Too bad you don't keep production cards on power supplies.
I'd love to know here this little guy has been.
