Hello. The B series 200s were made between late 68 and early 72 if i am not mistaken. The three prong didn't make a huge difference in my amps noise wise, but they sure are a heck of a lot safer! I would highly reccomend it; all you essentially have to do is swap out the cord and bolt a ground lug to the chassis. On my K200B-6, I had to disconnect the orange cap between the switch and the ground though because I was getting ground loop hum. Good luck and I would highly recommend just using the search function and enter "3 prong cord." There are a few posts about it that are very helpful. I record as well; I use a K200A-5 with a pair of CTS 2x15s for guitar and the small ammount of background noise doesn't bother me too much. If you filter out the extreme highs in the EQ on the recorder (10,000 hZ and above) the noise may go away substancially. Good luck!
