Xinnix Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I was wondering what others think about this guitar that sold on eBay. 04 Std Faded? I was trolling the sold items as I often do to see what the ebay selling price is lately. I came across this and it looks odd to me? First, it says its a 2004 and I thought they didn't make the Standard Faded until 2005? Also, the serial number looks odd? Nothing like mine from early 2005. And the back of the headstock is odd too? Just curious what others think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Bill Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Your guitar was made at the Nashville Plant, TN, USA December 15th, 2004 Production Number: 120 Perhaps Gibson started manufacturing these late in 2004 and they didn't go to market till 2005.

Xinnix Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 erhaps Gibson started manufacturing these late in 2004 and they didn't go to market till 2005. I was thinking that myself but I've never seen one or heard of one until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I don't see anything wrong with the s/n...other than the fact that it's a crummy picture. $1,600 is way too much. I remember seeing them new for $1,700 up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I have a Les Paul Vintage Mahogany and the Faded Standard models seem to have started around the same time, the serial number on mine indicated January 9th 2005. I have seen others for sale with late 2004 serial numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
