They are most certainly pre-1980. Compare the panels to the 1978 Serge
catalog in the files section. It's a direct match. By 1979 Serge was
using the new style graphics. The ebay panels contain modules that were
only available with the earlier series, such as the 3 wide triple
waveshaper, (pulse) sequencer, bidirectional router, triple comparator,
keyboard envelope generator, and combined ring modulator and VCA. Based
upon the combination of newer and older modules, I'd say 1978 is a good
guess for these panels.
