tugela Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I have a re-issue Gibson southern jumbo, and the label inside the guitar has the numbers 20400005 but the numbers on the neck block is 20401005. I have checked with the Gibson fon number site and it says that 20400005 was made on 9th February 2000 and 20401005 9th February 2001 . Why is this?

RBSinTo Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Either it took a reeeeeeally long time to make this guitar, or someone made an error when the label was printed. Your choice. RBSinTo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad1 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Or they could have used an old body with a new neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave F Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Obviously one is in error. I would guess the printed label. the neck block number states it was made in February 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
