Re: Date this Vibro-Champ!
Drip edge around the grille generally points to 68-70 but whatever the year, that's a lovely champ.

Serial number doesn’t help? And it’s in need of a total renovation I’m afraid, but I got it cheapMechaBulletBill wrote: ↑Wed Apr 25, 2018 9:59 amDrip edge around the grille generally points to 68-70 but whatever the year, that's a lovely champ.

Yes, they only put that 'drip rail' around the edge of the grille in 1968, so it is the easiest year to date.

Man, I'm never to these threads in time to make the same obvious joke. Just because it's obvious and old doesn't make it any less satisfying.

Re: Date this Vibro-Champ!
I would think it is closer to 68 than 70, given the vertical thin black lines on the face plate

Re: Date this Vibro-Champ!
def 68 with the black lines on the face. I had a similar backline Bassman that dated to Nov 1967 on the chassis (hand stamped date) and pot codes.

Re: Date this Vibro-Champ!
yeah but the issue is you would take the vibro-champ out and when the owner did'nt like you coming home late, you'd stab him in the ballsmackerelmint wrote: ↑Wed Apr 25, 2018 1:32 pmMan, I'm never to these threads in time to make the same obvious joke.
