Help me to be sure about this guitar


Recommended Posts

Hey forum,

I am looking at this beautiful Les Paul classic with a super early serial number. It is a gem of 1989, the 9 , the really first year of the Classic.

But I have some questions. I asked for additional pictures to double-check the details, finding some odd information.

First, in the potentiometer cavity, we can read 3 serial numbers: 1378946, 1378948, and 137900x (the last digit is hidden).  I then read the 46th week of 1989, the 48th week of 1989, and one of the first weeks of 1990. Is it possible?

Also, the cavities of the pickups are not dated, and they have some written marks done by a pen. 

 

Are these details concerning, or am I just too cold feet here?

 

Thank you
