davelowery11 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 I have a Gibson ES125 with the serial number G2145 11 as far as I can tell that would make it from 1941. Can someone tell me if that;s right. A friend told me it's from 1957 I don't know how he got that date. I just want to know what I have. Appreciate any help. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimR56 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 The number you're describing would have been an FON (factory order number), not a serial number. But you're correct that an FON beginning with 'G' would date to 1941. Please post some photos of the guitar (and the number, if possible), and we might be able to confirm what you have. Hope the helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
