I got an Epiphone Acoustic Guitar from my uncle a few years ago, and I would like to know what year it was made, and perhaps find out if it is worth anything. If anyone knows anything about reading serial numbers, or a way for me to find out some info using my serial/model number, I would appreciate it. Thanks

Hi I have an Orange label Sheraton 2 with an unusual serial. 99070167
I was wondering if this previous post applies
quote:
: : : During the 90’s “SOME” Ephiphones were produced in America by Gibson and they follow Gibson serial number identification rules, for example: YDDDYNNN The first and fifth number is the year of manufacture; the second, third, and fourth would be the day of the year and the last three would be that number guitar of the day. 90023514; this guitar was built on Jan 2 (second day of the year)of 1993 at the Nashville plant (5)and it was the 14 guitar built for that day.
end quote.
Does that make it a 90 usa gibson sheraton (the truss rod cover says gibson)

Can someone please help me to identify this 339?
Serial = 77102563 on inside sticker, no serial on headstock.
Headstock logo is Gibson but crudely stuck on not inlaid.
Truss rod cover says ES-339.
Pots turn at a bit of a strange angle.
Inside sticker is orange oval, says kalamazoo michigan made in USA. Why do I doubt that? -

Can anyone help me identify a guitar I’ve had for about 14 years? I bought it second hand and have no idea whether it’s genuine or not.
Gibson Epiphone les paul, plus a stamp on the back that says limited edition. Serial number on the back is U 6072302. The body is a shimmery sparkly gold, almost like it’s been covered in glitter. The word epiphone has a nice mother-of-pearl colouring too it, and the tuning pegs are a lvoely jade green colour.
I am toying with the idea of selling itm but now sure how much to ask for it… -

I don’t know much about guitars. I bought mine from some one and the top half of the arm part where the tuners go is missing but it did have a metal tag with a white sticker i giess on it in the case with the guitar that says LP25TS. ..? And that is the number for sure I can see it clearly. So its only a six digit code and I really haven’t had any luck in tracking down a year but I do believe it is a les paul. Can some one plz help me identify it? I do not know if tho is a serial number or a model number or something else

Hi, It would be much easier if you posted the serial number then I/we could look at it and provide info for you; however, here are some general guidelines: From ’58-’69 hollow body guitars had the serial number on a label inside the guitar, prefexed by the letter "A" plus four digits for the first four years (57 to 60). Beginning in 1960 the number was pressed into the back of the headstock. Between 1970 and 1983 the Epiphone was manufactured in Japan and the serial numbers became unreliable for dating purposes. Gibson labels were Orange and imported labels were Blue. During the 80’s production began in Korea and again serial numbers become unreliable. In 1993 the numbers became more reliable, for example: A3 would be 1993 as would A93. During the 90’s "SOME" Ephiphones were produced in America by Gibson and they follow Gibson serial number identification rules, for example: YDDDYNNN The first and fifth number is the year of manufacture; the second, third, and fourth would be the day of the year and the last three would be that number guitar of the day. 90023514; this guitar was built on Jan 2 (second day of the year)of 1993 at the Nashville plant (5)and it was the 14 guitar built for that day. There is more to it than this but again, if you post as much info as you have I’m sure we can date and price the guitar. Post the serial number and model number/name and we can better help you. JOE

I have what I believe to be an early 70’s Epiphone in the style of a 335. There is a paper lable on the metal plate where the neck bolts on to the body that reads Epiphone Serial number 239456, Made in Japan. I was told tha is not enough numbers for the Japanese made guitars. Can you help me? Can you tell me when this guitar was made and approximate value? Guitar is in excellent origional condition. Red with dark accents. Thank you, Allan

: Hi, : It would be much easier if you posted the serial number then I/we could look at it and provide info for you; however, here are some general guidelines: : From ’58-’69 hollow body guitars had the serial number on a label inside the guitar, prefexed by the letter "A" plus four digits for the first four years (57 to 60). : Beginning in 1960 the number was pressed into the back of the headstock. : Between 1970 and 1983 the Epiphone was manufactured in Japan and the serial numbers became unreliable for dating purposes. Gibson labels were Orange and imported labels were Blue. : During the 80’s production began in Korea and again serial numbers become unreliable. : In 1993 the numbers became more reliable, for example: A3 would be 1993 as would A93. : During the 90’s "SOME" Ephiphones were produced in America by Gibson and they follow Gibson serial number identification rules, for example: YDDDYNNN The first and fifth number is the year of manufacture; the second, third, and fourth would be the day of the year and the last three would be that number guitar of the day. 90023514; this guitar was built on Jan 2 (second day of the year)of 1993 at the Nashville plant (5)and it was the 14 guitar built for that day. : There is more to it than this but again, if you post as much info as you have I’m sure we can date and price the guitar. Post the serial number and model number/name and we can better help you. : JOE

Let’s try this one. In a pawn shop, Epiphone Les Paul, pretty light weight, black including back of neck, trapezoid inlays in fretboard, Gibson plastic cover over neck rod, serial number I00021948. The serial number is a transparent stick on lable on the back of the headstock. Any idea where and when this was made?
