kermu Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hi, i purchased (won an ebay auction) back in 2001 a left-handed Les Paul Custom, and would like to know the age of it, and where it was made. The SN embossed on the back of the head is: 83380005 It is a tobacco-burst with gold hardware all over and is a lovely guitar I look after it and play it to death and is in excellent condition as it didnt appear to have been used much before i got it, as it had(!) no fret wear on the original frets and only a little wear on the top of the pickups. it is definitely not a remak.. (80s?) thanks, Kerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
