Alembic doesn't have serial number records for electronics (F2B, F1X, SF2, etc.), just instruments. Age on F2Bs can be approximated in some cases by cosmetics--case color, knobs, city on ID plate. If you post photos Mica might be able to come up with a hypothesis..... mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 2758 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Thursday, November 10, 2005 - 4:55 pm:    Kent's right - we only track the instruments. Tell me the city printed on the back and a description including the chassis color and knob color, and we can get you an approximate age. I pulled the file for 4318 - which is a 1987 Spoiler, but that wont help much lowfreq New Username: lowfreq Post Number: 4 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Wednesday, November 16, 2005 - 12:15 pm:    As far as age, this has the teal/black casing with the aluminum knobs mentioned in the FAQ, and Santa Rosa, CA is the city on the back.
