Disclaimer:
The many Serial Numbering systems used by the different makers were not necessarily meant to indicate the date of manufacture. Therefore using an instruments Serial Number is not always an accurate method for dating a Vintage Guitar.

However, using the Serial Number to date an instrument is a popular method and will usually place the instrument within a few years of its actual manufacture date. Further research will be needed to authenticate the date of manufacture of an instrument.
