chrisajr Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hello all! This is my first post, so please bear with me. I am thinking about buying an ES-339. I would like to find out a little about its history, but I have been unable to come across any information from the serial number. Can anyone help me please? The serial number is CS252496. Thanks.

Here's a link to Gibson's info - http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Support/SerialNumberSearch/Default.aspx I guess that 339 must be a 2012 model and 52,496 would be the production number - the 52,496th guitar from that production year. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR9 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 It is a 2012 model made in Memphis. CS252496 CS=custom shop 2= 2012 ( 5=Memphis ??? might be wrong on that) and 2496=number in production sequence A litlle 339 history: 339 History Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badbluesplayer Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 My 339 is # CS74280 and it's a 2007, made in Memphis. 4280 is the production number. Not sure what the extra digit is (the 5) on Chris's guitar. I don't think they made 52,000 CS/Memphis guitars that year. Maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
