more orange lable....

[Andreja]

I have what seems to be a Historic ES355 ( no serial on the back of the headstok, no made in USA, no CS label).

When I bought it it didnt came with the COA, is that correct?

On the orange label there is the serial number. It says Nashville - made in USA.

I suppose this one was made at Nashville CS in 01 - 02 before Memphis started to make semi solids.

My question is: is there different orange labels now? on the Memphis orange label is there writen Memphis?

Are the semis 335 style guitars still being made down in Nashville? all CS 335, 345, 355 are now made in Memphis?

or there is still some ES 335 style being made in Nashville plant?

 

Thanks in advance for clearing that out.;)

Historic 335s are made in Nashville, non-Historic 335s are made in Memphis. the orange label should be the same though. a Memphis made 335 will have an 8-digit serial number, a Nashville made Historic 335 will have a serial number that starts with "A" followed by 5 digits.

Historic 335s are made in Nashville' date=' non-Historic 335s are made in Memphis. the orange label should be the same though. a Memphis made 335 will have an 8-digit serial number, a Nashville made Historic 335 will have a serial number that starts with "A" followed by 5 digits.[/quote']

 

Thanks,

but does this also the case with Historics ES355?

I saw on eBay somone seling a CS Historic ES355 and saying it made in Memphis, but no stamped 8 digit seriam number but a Orange label with B97xxx.

So......?

if the serial number has "B", it is a historic 355. again, all Memphis 335s, 345s, etc have 8 digit serial numbers

how about the COA in 2001-2002? was it available with the Historic ES series?

we started shipping COAs as a general rule in 2001, so this guitar should have shipped with one.
