Don't think those photos came out correctly. I haven't got the hang of putting photos up. Bottom of the neck has 8-61 written on it so now I know. :D

Very nice. There's your date.

I hope you cleaned off those steel wool bits?!!
What about the pot date codes?

Good Lord, yes!

Don't let them get near the pole pieces of the pickups.

:shock:

This is fun, haven't seen inside the old gal for forty odd years. I can't see any date codes on the pots. If they were written on then they have been rubbed off many years ago. The are the spec stamps visible on one. 250k AUD 304-6114. The capacitor has SK .1X 50V on it. Also I notice just under the neck pu the word KAISER is faintly visible in red. This is probably the trade name of the metal sheet from which the screening was cut. There are a total of 13 separate combinations of tones available with the mods I put on. Will list these later.

To the right of your picture in Photobucket is a box with four tags for various uses. For posting to a forum, copy the bottom one that says "IMG Tag". Then paste that tag into your post.

The "304" visible on that pot indicates it was made by Stackpole and the "6114" indicates it was manufactured in the 14th week of 1961.
