YAMAHA GUITAR SERIAL NUMBER DATING CODE

The system uses running model numbers rather than a dedicated code for year, month, and place of manufacture.ДЇ300000 = late 2009 used on LP Std'59/Std'60/Tribute modelsД¬ontinued around F310650~F311050 in spring 2012 on Tribute-Plus models

The latest serial number system used by Epiphone has not yet been completely deciphered. YY = double digit year of manufacture (2010-Current)Д®xample: F21234 = Fuji-gen Japan / 2002 / unit 1234Д®xample: T101234 = Terada Japan / 2010 / unit 1234ДЇ-Serial Numbers on Les Paul Standard '59/'60 Models and Tribute/Plus Models Y = single digit year of manufacture (2 = 2002, 3 = 2003, etc.)

M = letter code to corresponding month (A=January, B=February, etc.)Д®xample: R01B0123 = Peerless Korea / 2001 / February / unit 0123. The ranking number may consist of any number of digits. A single digit month of manufacture may occur for some 1997 and earlier models. Note: There may be no factory designator for some 1993 and earlier models.

Though I can't verify the accuracy, it was posted in the Dean online forums that imports after 2008 follow a pattern with the initial letter or letters identifying the factory, such that: US = Un Sung Korea, Y = Yoojin China, E = World Korea.The following two digitsВ indicateВ year, then two-digit month, then production number. If you see a seven digit serial number on the back of a Dean guitar, you can be sure that it was produced in United States.Дean's more affordable line made outside the US may require looking at features and hardware and some knowledge of the line. First two numbers in the sequence are the last two digits of the production year. Please leave comments/ask questionsВ and see a short FAQ at the bottom.В If you enjoyed this content- PLEASE take a look at our current used guitars and gear!Д®very Dean guitar made in United States comes with a seven digit serial number that is printed on the back of the headstock (some 90s models may be stamped on the fretboard).
