Identify this Fane

Hey All,

I have a Hiwatt labeled Fane with the sticker missing.
with a Purple Hiwatt label. There is a stamp on the frame in a circle that says 'Hi-F? and '4' underneath. The cone is stamped W5333 and underneath 426. The cone seems to be in exceptionally good shape (might be a re-cone)

Any idea which model it is?

Cheers, Mike

based on the info given, the only thing that can be determined is that it is a recone.

The cone is not original. The other identifiers aren't of much help, unfortunately. We'll need you to post pics for more clues.

The speaker terminals are replacements and I've never seen a dust cap that large on a Hiwatt Fane. Original gaskets from that era were brown cardboard - or a green foam. That confirms it's been reconed.

It was probably a 122142 or 122231 originally. With the tag missing, about the only way to tell would be by weight (122142's have heavier magnets).
