Fender Tube amp codes: 1953-1970 - (look for a 2 letter code stamped on the tube chart inside the back of the amp)- the first letter is the year, and the second letter is the month.An amp stamped NA would have been made in Jan. Here is a list of the first letter showing the year of manufacture.

Need help identifying used Hot Rod Deluxe manufactured date. The s/n is B-267755 Type: PR 246 Sorry but the website DATING CONTEMPORARY FENDER AMPLIFIERS only shows up to year 2000..?
Try this hot-rod dating article at sweetwater http://www.sweetwater.com/expert-center .. 10/24/2008 Note: it mentions that hot-rod amps built 2002 and later no longer have a date stamp in the amp. It probably also says 'Made in Mexico' somewhere in or on the amp, which also indicates it is one of the newer re-issue amps. Only way to get the actual manufacture date for these newer amps is to contact Fender support and ask them about that serial number. Old or new the Hot-Rod's do not hold much value very well, and just depreciate. If you have one enjoy it, they are ok amps when they work!
