I could use some expert help. I was considering listing this ES-335 '63 Block Inlay Reissue for sale elsewhere, in doing some research I discovered I couldn't definitievly date the instrument based on its serial# 37162.
This serial number also appears on the back of the headstock in ink, under the finish. I have seen other ES 335 '63 RI's marked thusly, but the Gibson serai number ID site was not helpful in dating this guitar.
Can any of you knowledgeable guys shed any light on this guitars birthdate ? I tried calling Gibson all of yesterday, an excercise in futility and I never could get a live human being on the line.
Thanks Guys, Mods please move if this isn't the appropriate forum.
