Hi there I am looking into buying a Fender Band Master Circa 67-68, The transition period. It is silver face but has the drip edge and I am wondering if it is the AB763 version.
The serial Number is 2054667

Any help would be appriciated!

The drip edge puts it in the right year range you're looking for. Check the tube chart if still there...not always correct , but still a rough indicator.

Thanks Dave-

Unfortunately the amp is not anywhere I can look at it (Amps in Tennessee I am in Massachusetts). The guy does not seem to know where to locate what I am looking for the only number he gave me was what I posted earlier. I told him about the tube chart and that it should start with 2 letters first ect. But no luck, so I passed.

Some day my ship will come in!

'68 silverfaces didn't have the two letter code on the tube chart.
Even some '67 silverface amps came with no letter code because they were made for the NAAM show.

interesting note on the two letters for 67 and 68
