I have a cab in very good condition that I though was from 1978 but I think I'm wrong !
It says on the back plate Made in England by Hylight Electronics AP SE4122 serial 9041 150watt 16ohms
The speaker frames are black with black covers and Hiwatt purple label and they are stamped with white ink 35 - 82 and then 122 14 14 they have the light grey-colored dust cap
I guess it's a 1982 ? also what is the difference with a 122231 Fane ?
Thank's!......................Louis
What year is my cab?

Re: What year is my cab?
by your description it sounds like the Biacrown crew used a leftover Hylight tag.
Dave Reeves and Hylight Electronics died March 15, 1981. Thus there is no such thing as a 1982 Hylight.
I am unfamiliar with a speaker model 1221414, I hope you like it!

I took out another speaker and it's stamped 122142 , I noticed that the first one that I took out was'nt well stamped.
Any idea what this is ?

122142 Fanes are one of the two most commonly used in Hylight 4x12 cabs. They have a heavier magnet than the 122231.
Both are excellent.

Yep - those are keepers, louis!Dr.HIWATT wrote:Both are excellent.
I've got a front-loaded cab that came with 122142's, three in black frames dated 75810000 (on stickers) and 5815 (stamped on frame), and one grey frame dated 12/80. Transitional, I guess - if all are original to the cab. They all have the grey dust caps.
