Trying to get info on a Little Lucille


Recommended Posts

Are there any members on here that are experts on Gibson serial numbers? I went to the page on Gibson.com to try and figure out information from a serial number and am now very close to shooting myself. I'm sure this has been asked many times but I can't figure it out.

 

The serial number is 90979581. It is an ebony Little Lucille at a local pawn shop. If I can get the age and any other pertinent information I want to try and figure out if what they are asking seems fair. Actually the price they have on it seems cheap. But I find it difficult to believe a pawn shop wouldn't know its value.

I'm not an expert on the subject but I think #90979581 was made in 1999

 

8 digit number : ydddynnn

 

 

yy (1st. & 5th. digit)= year of manufacture

dd. (digits 2-4)= day of year

nnn (digits 6-8)=daily # rank

 

Hope that helps.

 

PS. Little Lucys are a great score $1000.00-1400.00 depending on condition.

Thanks, dReit1. It is in like new shape; not a mark on it. Literally, it looks brand new. He is asking $1300 for it so I guess it is no great deal. I am probably going to go play it tomorrow. I don't know if I am going to move forward with it or not. Unfortunately, when I play it I may fall in love and all reason will go out the window [rolleyes]

 

Thanks again.
