El Giablo Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 My Wes is stamped 94056025. Year =1996 Build date? Thanks, El G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRIDER Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 It appears to be a 1994..YDDDY doesn't apply to 94056025. That would read the 405th day of the year ...Only 365 days in a yr. Below I pasted part of Gibson's page for serial numbers. Those beginning with "94": In 1994, Gibson's Centennial year, many instruments have a serial number that begins with "94" for the year, with the remaining 6 digits indicating the ranking number.

BobB Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Serial numbers beginning with "94" were only used on electric models built in Nashville in 1994. Gibson Montana acoustic models from that year were using the traditional 8 digit format where the 1st and 5th digit designated the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it was made in Nashville. El G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
