I'm not quite sure if ?'s advise is right if it's a vintage Gibson... or... I could be wrong...lol
Anyway, you could check out http://www.gibson.com/downloads/bluebook/GibsonSERIALNUMBERS.pdf but need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader to view it. Have fun and good luck.

I have in possesion a parlour Gibson guitar with the serial numbers : 6561 13 as a serial number at the base of the neck inside the sound box. Also there is a truss rod. Comparing it to a picture, it looks like its an LG-1. Finish is sunburst.
Can you help us date it.

Thanks for all your help!

I urgently need Flobo Image Recovery warez/crack. This apllication is unique. It recovers images
inserted in MS Office file formats: Power Point, Word, acces, excel. It's the only software capable
to recover images for any file format recovery of MSOffice suite. This recovery software is
provided by Flobo Recovery( www.floborecovery.dsoftscape.com). After a virus attack I had several
Microsoft Office files to recover. I tried demo and it works great. Unfortunatelly it recovers

Easy peasy. 1st and 5th numbers indicate the year,
2nd,3rd and 4th numbers indicate the day. The last three numbers indicate the plant where it was made and days prodution number. Kalamazoo used numbers 000-499, Nashville used 500-999.
So, your guitar was made on the 23rd February 1978 at the Nashville plant and was the 2nd guitar to be stamped that day. Hope this helps.
