Certainly some time in the 1960s. I'd say some time around 1963 with the introduction of the TE1. |
That could be it then. I have been trying to recall how old I was when I got my first SE2 around the age of 13 or 14 possibly. Shame they never continued with the brass end cap on the connecting rod.  _________________ Les |
