Marion Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 I have an old Gibson Melody Maker with 2 pick ups. Serial number is 552792. How can I find out when it was built? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimR56 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 That serial number probably dates to 1966-69. Unfortunately, Gibson's numbering system was poorly managed during that period, and some numbers were duplicated. Your number is actually even more difficult to assess, because it's in a specific range that doesn't show up in the surviving listings.
