So I just bought a K200 with matching 2x15 CTS Cabinet. I think it's charcoal, but it may be silver that has darkened over time. However, there is no model number on it. The tag on the back doesn't look like its been stamped properly. It looks like it says K200 A 1, but I can barely make out. However, It DOES have the serial #, which is 70531. That should make it a '71. The odd thing is that it has a red pilot light, not blue. I remember reading that only really early K200s had the red light. Any thoughts? I suspect it's just a replacement light.

Given your description, if the front panel has the )))200((( below the power switch, it is a K200B model. If the front panel below the input jacks says By Ross it would be a K200A model. The dash one part of the model number would be a no effects two channel amp. I would guess that someone has changed out the pilot light cover to red if it is a B series.

Hello!
In regards to the amps color, silver( really white in my book) can get fairly yellowed out over time like one of the 2 K200 set ups that I have, but by inlarge its still way lighter in color than a charcoal covered amp.
If you need a blue lamp end, Anitque electronics stocks them.

Based on the info you guys have provided, the amp is certainly a K-200 B1 in charcoal. Thanks for the help.
