Ltd Ed Epiphone Dove


General Shelby

Recommended Posts

Hi - Just wondering if anyone can help? I have just bought a Ltd Edition Epiphone Dove Custom Shop

Label inside reads: Ltd.Ed.Dove/EB SI 07040626 (It's Black with dove bridge, pickguard and nice inlays on the fretboard.)

 

Can anyone tell me any info about it please - when and where it was made, how much it's worth (or what it cost new) etc. (Previous owner apparently bought it in Holland) I've been told these are rare in the United Kingdom.

 

Would love to know more about it if anyone can point me in the right direction to trace some info please.

 

Many thanks

 

Mike

Hi Paul, many thanks for your reply - that's told me a little more about it!

 

'The guitar was made at a factory not yet added to the database

April 2007

Production Number: 0626'

 

So at least I know what age it is thanks. Still curious about it tho as it has 'Epiphone Custom Shop' on the back of the headstock, but no indication of where it was made.

 

Thanks for your help Paul,

 

Regards

 

Mike
