Recommended Posts

Can you help me with the identification of my Sheriton 11 guitar please. Iam interested to find all the info about it as i can. It has a white label on the back of the headstock that has the numbers 71011125 stamped on. Also on the front by the right side of the Gibson logo is a circle with the letter R inside would be interested to find out what this signifies. Thank you all.post-73007-012592100 1436809613_thumb.jpg

From the serial number, it's a Korean 1987 Sheraton II.

From the information gained it seems it was manufactured in Japan at the Matsumoku factory under license to Aria guitars, thanks anyway John.

This is correct. The "Epiphone by Gibson" logo was used on many Korean made Epiphones from the mid-late 80's. The serial number 71011125 would date to October of 1987.
