I'm not sure the serial number is #xxxxxx47 I have never seen the xxxxx before the serial number prototype ??
has the Traid transformers same OPT as the Tweed Bassman 5F6A mustard color Astron capacitors
The other Fender Concert AB763 1964 so I have the first production and last production of the Concert amps

Here is fine for the pics
I have the equivalent of 3 full stacks, but they are not set up in that configuration.
Love your big rig brother, mine are all MG cabs.

Don't laugh, but the outside stacks are Behringer. They are of surprisingly good quality though, 3/4" plywood, angled baffling, and metal grills. The speakers ...not so much. I have replaced them with Celestions and B52 speakers. The Vox speakers are awesome and the cabs are very good. I bought all 3 of those Mesas broken and fixed them myself for pennies on the dollar.

I just thought of something. A guess anyways. It might be the number of an employee who was responsible for a certain part of manufacture or an inspection number or something like that.
 
Wow that's a cool rig OP. I love dual amp stereo & wet/dry rigs.
I am running a Friedman PT-20>1x12 (UK GB) & a Marshall DSL-20HR>1x12 (Cannabis Rex)

The Supa-Trem2 & Stereo Memory Man are in the loops.

I thought I would share a picture of the very cool Roland JC-120 Jazz Chorus. I threw together a little board for the amp switches from some scrap wood. I am using BOSS FS-6 [set as both latching), FS-5L (latching) for the Distortion (I use as a Boost), Reverb, and Chorus, respectively from right to left. I also use a BOSS AB-2 to switch between channels. The Distortion circuit of the JC-120 is notoriously awful (that's why I use it as a boost dialed down a little). So, I added a BOSS OD-20 Drive Zone for a selection of overdrive and distortion pedals. I still had enough room for a TU-2 tuner and the BOSS GP-20 Amp Factory which sounds better into the Jazz Chorus than most of the other amps I have. It actually has the JC-120 as one of the models, so that setting is rendered kind of pointless. The Matchless setting is killer. The Mesa Rectifier setting, not so much.
View attachment 87633I also gathered several of my smaller true stereo pedals and put together an easily portable wet thing that I can use with every amp I own whether it's FX Loop is True Stereo, Mono In - Stereo Out, or just Mono. The Diamond Halo pedal converts to whatever input configuration it is given. So, this is a problem solver for me. Eventually, I am going to put together something more permanent for my larger True Stereo pedals (it will be big and not designed for portability) and this little board will go before it allowing me to adapt to any of my amps regardless of their configuration. Does anyone else have a stereo rig or wet dry wet rig? It's sonic bliss!

I always thought this kind of setup would be cool but I never really tried it myself. I run a stereo rig technically but it's pretty simple:

I go into a JOYO Ultimate Drive (gain at 10 o'clock, level nearly maxed, tone at around 1 o'clock in hi mode) that goes into a MXR Stereo Chorus with the dials mostly all at noonish. Both of those are going into the front of a Marshall Mode Four in it's Amp 1 channel so it's like a Plexi on the edge of breakup with it's internal digital reverb up about 75% into a Marshall MF400B 4x12 with K100s. Then a Marshall JCM2000 DSL50 on OD2, gain about 1 o'clock, no reverb, into a Marshall 1960A 4x12 with T-75s and another Marshall MF400B 4x12 with K100s.

The Mode Four acts cleaner while the DSL50 acts dirtier, when both are in stereo it's pretty cool sounding, like two different guitars at once

That's cool. I have a few different rigs in different rooms of the house. Some are in stereo, some aren't. It depends on the effects that I am using to a large degree and if I am running to a single amp in mono, a stereo amp, or a multiple amp rig like Wet/Dry/Wet.

This is my bedroom setup. There are several Line6 ToneCore pedals and a few oddball pedals. They sit on top of a dresser next to my bed. The DRIVE LOOP consists of fuzz distortions, overdrives, a compressor, an envelope filter and an EQ all run through a noise gate. A tuner sits to the side.The pink Digitech DELAY splits the signal into stereo and out to Line6 Chorus, Flanger, Tremolo, Echo, and Reverb. The stereo signal runs to 2 Epiphone Blues Jr.s sitting on the headboard of my bed. I use a BOSS WL-50 Wireless.

I used to use an old DOD Stereo Chorus that I've had since the eighties to separate the signal for stereo setups. Now, I just use an A/B/Y box.

That works too! I've thought about getting an A/B/Y box before myself. And DOD made some really cool pedals back in the day. First lil processor I ever had as a teen was a DOD FX7 and the first pedal i ever owned period, was a DOD FX17 Volume/Wah. Thing was built like a tank and pretty good actually
