Anybody know what model and what year Fender started utilizing the JBL script badge on the front grillecloth of JBL installed amplifiers. Cone number nomenclature, serial numbers, any links with updates or personal knowledge will do. They will use the barcode of your product to see if its Genuine or yet another fake. Also you can visit a nearby JBL Service Centre and get your product checked. Genuine JBL Products will have a serial number that can be successfully registered. Depending on when the speakers were made this information may simply include a year and week or may be more specific, down to the day or hour. Per manufacturing regulations, the makers of electronics must include a minimum amount of production date information on their products. JBL makes a wide range of speakers and subwoofers both under the JBL name and also under the Altec Lansing and Harman Kardon names. JBL is short for James Bullough Lansing, who founded the company.
