Maestro Boomerang BG-2 1974 - Black
Our users rate Reverb
Collectors piece...Serial # 50960.
All original 1974... pot is a little scratchy..but original. Functions good.
The standard 7-digit Electronics Industries Alliance (EIA) configuration decodes directly into three distinct pieces of information: [1]
- 134 (Manufacturer Code): This identifies the potentiometer maker as Centralab (unlike the CTS pots commonly found in Gibson guitars, Maestro heavily utilized Centralab for the BG-2 variant).
- 74 (Year of Production): The next two digits stand for 1974.
- 44 (Week of Production): The final two digits represent the 44th week of the year, which maps to the end of October. [1, 2, 3]
Contextual RecapYour initial serial number pointed to a 1972–1973 origin, but dating vintage gear always relies on the latest component code found. This 1347444 stamp serves as concrete evidence that your Maestro Boomerang BG-2 left the Lincolnwood factory as a late 1974 model.
