Hi Folks,

 

Already posted this in the custom section but been advised I might get more eyes on it here. I have a custom shop Super 200 one of 5 commissioned by Fuller Guitars in Texas in 2004. Just wondering if any members have one of the other 4?

I have also pointed out in my other post that the serial suggests this is production number 13 so I am not sure how that ties with there only being 5? Perhaps the 5 for Fullers was part of a larger run but if anyone thinks they can shed any light on that, that would be great.

Hi Again-

 

Good to see you got the Photobucket thing working; now to embed a photo so that it displays on your post, 'just need to hit the photo icon on this forum's post/reply toolbar:

Hope you come up with some info on your Super 200. Maybe Fullers can fill in some blanks.

Your s/n is 03144013 which means

 

Your guitar was made at the

Bozeman Plant, MT, USA

on November 9th, 2004

Production Number: 13

 

The number 13 means it was the 13th guitar completed that day. Gibson completes a hundred or more guitars a day I believe (anyone, anyone?). Yours was the 13th done of all the ones they were working on. The other four Fullers could have had consecutive serial numbers or, more likely, serial numbers that were many digits or days apart depending on what was being worked on and what Gibson's priorities were. You've got a beautiful guitar and one that probably got sneezed on by Ren so it should be treasured.

Thanks, that makes sense regards the serial and clears that up for for me [thumbup] Yep trust me it is treasured and it is also played. Just need to get her fitted with an L R Baggs Anthem and she will be out gigging with me too in the near future.

Hi,

I got one of those beauties.
S/n 03434032

Day 343,  2004  

I bought of a German seller on eBay 2016. I live in Sweden. It is still in fantastic condition and sounds amazing. 
I got the following answer from Fullers when I asked them about the spec.

HI, this guitar is spruce top Maple back and sides. It was a special run done for us for a few years , Then Gibson made a few runs and offered them to everyone. No exact number was kept, But it would be under 50 made exclusively for Fuller's, Standard construction, Just made to look like the Gibson Super 400. 

That’s all I have.
