arebar Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I just bought my first LP - second hand. The seller told med it's a 2001. My own research after receiving it shows that it probably is a 2011 (it has a black COA card). Could someone please help me confirm? It's a darkback. And if I'm right and it's a 2011, would there be any reason to get reverse the deal? I love playing it. No intonation issues, and the sound is excellent. The back of the neck is sanded though for less friction. I would never have done that ... but it doesn't bother me much, and I knew about it in advance. Feels ok. Serial number: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/87244575/DSC02872.jpg Guitar: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/87244575/DSC02867.jpg Thanks in advance for your help!

sral68 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Hi! I am not an expert in these matters. Recently bougth a 2011 R8. It has the same tuners as yours but the serial number has 6 diditgs. Might be that yours is from 01. I also have black Certificate. I just bought my first LP - second hand. The seller told med it's a 2001. My own research after receiving it shows that it probably is a 2011 (it has a black COA card). Could someone please help me confirm? It's a darkback.

Jon S. Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 This would indeed date to 2011. The black booklet COA's were not used until 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
