yarddizzle Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 First and foremost, I'd like to thank you for having this forum as a resource that one can reference when he/she needs accurate info. I'm new and this my 1st post so here it goes... I just picked up a Gibson (stamped vertically on the trussrod cover) Epiphone J-45 Elitist that's in pristine condition and is an A/E with the pup under the saddle. My question is this; why is there and "NA" printed on the soundhole label just to the right of the "j-45"? What is this indicative of? The serial is also unique in that it begins w/a T; T201100 is the serial number. I know that it's probably a Japan build but the "NA" has got me stumped and I've searched the web googling the model #in every variation I could think of but to no avail. Any assistance or direction would be a big help. Again, I'd like to thank yall for having me! Cordially, Jon "YardDogg" Yarbrough Here's my newest gal: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peeper Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Probably stands for the finish. NA, its a natural colored guitar right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bender 4 Life Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 "T" probably designates the Terada (japan) Epi factory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
