Out of curiosity, I checked the Consumer Price Index tables.... I paid $400 for my 200 B-1 2x15 in 1971. The price for this amp in 2001 dollars would be $1,280. Wow!

I forgot to mention...... That would be the discount price paid, not list. And it would be for an amp of the same quality; made in Chanute, Kansas, U.S.A.
