Wooks79 Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 Does anyone have any idea what the serial number of the first Boss OC-2 would be? It's a daft question I bet, but I just picked another one up today, popped the serial into the Boss serial decoder, and it's come up as April '82, which is from what I gather, the first month of the Boss OC-2 production... So it just got me wondering what the first one is, or who has the earliest one on here? Si, I'm looking at you! Quote
MB1 Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 MB1. Ha Ha! Best not be that one I sold ya Si ? Quote
Wooks79 Posted August 5, 2013 Author Posted August 5, 2013 No, that one remains firmly velcro'd on my board That one's a later one after it was changed to Octave rather than Octaver, so that's early '84 onwards... Quote
Sibob Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I'll open up mine when I get home from Ireland. There's 5 Octavers and 2 Octaves to check lol Si Quote

Sibob Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 Ah, thanks for reminding me, just taken a look, all Japanese unless otherwise stated: Octave (Taiwan) - March 2000 Octave - September 1985 Octaver - July 1984 Octaver - May 1984 Octaver - February 1984 Octaver - November 1982 Octaver - May 1982 Guess I'm looking for a June '83 one huh, birth year OC-2 Si Quote
Sibob Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 Guys, inspired by this, I've started a little OC2 date & serial library/database on my blog here: [url="http://simonpoulton.tumblr.com/"]http://simonpoulton.tumblr.com/[/url] Perhaps it will turn into something bigger, but we'll see. Please let me know your serials either via this thread, the blog, twitter (@simonrpoulton or #OC2Database) Cheers Si Quote

Wooks79 Posted August 23, 2013 Author Posted August 23, 2013 Good idea Si, [font="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"]Octave - Sept 1987 - Japanese Serial 823153[/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Octaver - April 1982 - Japanese - Serial 171300[/font] Since I believe April 1982 was the first month of production, I am desperate to find out how early my pedal is! Not bad for £20 off Gumtree! Quote
