1966 Transistor Identification???

Post by drewskee »

Can anyone identify the trannies in this 1966? One looks like an SFT 153 (?) but the black on is a mystery to me (great Fleetwood Mac song too!)

Looks like SFT353. The black one is probably also SFT.

I agree with jetofuj -- That's an SFT353 (Metal Can) and prob SFT317 (black). That's what I have. What serial#/year?
Is the black one plastic coated or metal?

So it's "custom" because it was modded?
