Help! First generation EB volume pedals,

[MewSik]

I have a vintage EB mono volume pedal that my dad purchased back in the 70s and was considered a "gem" back then. I know the newer models have a model number to identify the pedal. Is there a name for this particular model, ie, first generation made? Thank you in advance any help.

Wow, I can't wait to hear about this one. I want it, if you ever part with it.

The model number would be a 6160, 250k mono volume pedal, we later redesigned them to have the jacks in front.

Modification of in/output?

I still haven't found one similar to this. I believe my dad modified the side in/output and put it to the front. The pot reads AB EJ Extra-life Mexico, which is the Allen Bradley pot. Was this a home modification?? I cannot find any info on the serial no. B20343, since, from what I can find only goes back to 1985. Anybody have an idea??
