BigKahune Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 . The serial number won't tell you much beyond 1971-1973. Some of the members can identify the year from some good photos of the guitar. Post some pics - good focus - no angles - well lit - a straight overhead shot of the whole guitar, a shot of the front of the headstock, and a shot of the back of the headstock that includes the top end of the neck area. Get an account on a picture hosting, they're free, like Photobucket - http://wwww.photobucket.com/ - Upload your photos there. Copy the "Direct link" from Photobucket into the "Insert image" tool on the Post editor's toolbar here on the forum. Here's directions - http://forum.gibson.com/index.php?/topic/11005-sticky-how-to-post-photos/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobB Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 If the words "MADE IN USA" appear below the serial number it would be from between 1970-1972. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
