Open it up and look at the date code on the pots....

 

It should say something like 137736 137 is a CTS pot, 4th digit is the year 1977, and the last 2 are the week that the pedal was made i.e week/month 4th week in Sept

 

....so what do you have :thu:

cool! i just opened up my MXR 117 flanger (i had to unscrew the circuit board to see the pots too) and the number on my pots is 1377801. this means the first week of 1977 right?

 

 

wouldnt it be '78 then? cause mine is 1377930, and they said its 79'
