Gibson John Lennon J-160E Serial number discrepancy

[Guest Shawn McDermott]

This is regarding a Ltd Edition John Lennon J-160E.

 

Pre-pack checklist shows serial number as 90428017, and the orange oval label inside the soundhole also is printed 90428017 and #9 of 250. This indicates the guitar was produced on the 10th of February 1998. However the COA is printed 9 of 250 with serial number 90429017. The back of the headstock is stamped 90429017. This indicates the guitar was produced 10th Feb 1999.

 

So what gives? I'm interested in selling this guitar but I cannot with this discrepancy being so obvious.

 

Thanks for your reply

The guitar exists in two universes! Stephen Hawking and some other physicists will be over to see you....
