Hey guys, looking at purchasing an old k250-1 and just trying to figure out the info on it. Posting this on mobile and can't figure out how to add an image, so here we go. Serial no. Is either 106228 or 106220, last digit is kinda sketchy looking lol. Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome!

Your amp was born in 1973.
Depending on what that last digit is it may have been made in mid or late 73.

Being a 73 the tuck & roll will have a corse grain texture to it if it's black, and it's speaker cabinet will have a straight front, as in the depth of the bottom and top will be the same, and the grill cloth will have silver strips in it.

Note that pictures can not be posted here, if you want to do such then join the Facebook Kustom site.

Lol! You state that you have this" old Kustom" and to hear this put this way always puts a smile on my face because it was a very very long time ago when these now vintage amps where new!
