Roland Serial Number Lookup

  • May 27, 2016  I also tried my orange, vintage Roland Cubes for acoustic amplifying, but found out that - though being the perfect fit for my single coil electrics - they are not just 'half a JC', but voiced differently, more Fender-like, which makes the acoustics' sound a bit too harsh for my ears.

A Roland Jazz Chorus 120 amplifier.

Roland Jazz Chorus is the name given to a series of solid-state instrument amplifiers produced by the Roland Corporation in Japan since 1975. Its name comes from its built-in analog choruseffect. The Jazz Chorus series became increasingly popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s new wave and post-punk scenes because of its clean yet powerful sound, durability and relatively low cost when compared to the more commonly used tube amplifiers of the time such as Marshall or Fender. It also found favour amongst funk players in America.[1] It also became popular to use for clean tones in heavy metal, with the most famous users being James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett from Metallica, and Wes Borland from Limp Bizkit.

Identifying the year a Roland JC-120 was made? [Gear]

I am considering buying a used vintage JC-120. The seller claims the amp was made in 1975, which I find highly unlikely as that's the year the JC-120s were first produced. He did send me a serial number, which is #687359. I googled decoding Roland serial numbers but there are a bunch of different sometimes contradictory threads and I was unable to get anywhere on my own.

He also sent photos of the amp: http://imgur.com/a/KnalF

Any thoughts on how I can date it? I don't need a 1975 model specifically, but I'd love to find a 70s or 80s JC-120.

Thanks!
