The total number of Hylight amps built was 15,375 give or take 25.
The whereabouts of Hylight accounting records is unkown, I figure they were destroyed by the biacrooks when colluding with the solicitor of the Reeves estate.

So, the Hylight Hiwatts we KNOW about are listed in Mark Huss' Registry: http://mhuss.com/Hiwatt/RegAmps.php

Once upon a time, someone threw those stats into a spreadsheet and approximated percentages of each model. Gotta dig around for those results. Perhaps enough data to determine trends, but still too many missing units to say with a lot of certainty.

I have Max's spreadsheet and I updated it a bit.

Not enough amps accounted for to be very accurate.

It is highly unlikely that we will ever know exactly how many were made of each model.
we know trends and proportions, but a finite number is probably out of reach.
