Made in USA + Date on back of headstocks?

I've got a 2007 sg faded that just has the serial number and "made in usa" on the back of the headstock. But, I recently saw one made in 2008 that has "made in usa 2008" on the back. Anyone have any info on this? Just wanna be sure that these are not fakes.

 

 

Sincerely,

They started stamping the date on the headstocks in 08, but not on all models. My standard has it but I don't think the the specials or faded specials had it.

Well, this was a faded that I saw it on. I guess they stamped these this way as well, then.

 

Thanks for your comment.

My Faded has it on the back of the headstock also. It's a 2009.

 

 

Cool. Yeah, I saw a 2010 faded in a store today. It had the date on it too. Takes the mystery out of the serial numbers, I guess. :-&
