It had both Gibson and Epiphone written on the headstock, its made in Korea and the serial number is 1060327. As far as I can tell this means its made after the 70s, but I am trying to get a more accurate date. Do Epiphone serials have a way to decode them to tell which year they are from? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
