Those serial numbers don't jive with the Epiphone serial number decoder.... Epiphones have been built in several different countries, Japans build have usually been higher quality, but Japans early serial number tracking was not documented very well. Several of the early Japan Epiphones had different shaped Headstocks from what is currently being produced on similar models and these may have more value. The only way we can help is if you post pics to help identify them... This is from the 89 catalog.. Epiphone Catalogs... Edited December 21, 2019 by mihcmac Quote

Not sure of its value, but here is some info on it. http://epiphonewiki.org/index/FT-Series.php#FT-570BL.2FSB_Sheraton The other serial couldbe anything. We would need to see pics of it to determine what model it is. Quote
