Now that's a question which is going to keep me up at nights....

They are obviously digital, they lack a mass amount of knobs.  God! The IGNORANCE I have to put up with

Ah aqualung - this is a common mistake - these are actually the 1975 Hammond Jars, which although they look cosmetically similar, were actually solid state, not tube driven.

It's nice to know that people can salute the jar without becoming obsessed with them.

BTW, I'm sure that last metal jar on the right is a Taiwanese copy.

[QUOTE=Sweetnighter] You know the prog metal jars are
becoming increasingly popular among the vintage jar fans.

Thanks for about 5 Mins. of uncontrolable laughter.
(must have been all that cough syrup)

Cheers!
