Hello everyone
I came across this particular serial number online and wanted to check if it can be even possible to exist:
03457 0471
Drawing references from the Gibson website and Guitardaterproject,
It states
Your guitar was made at the
Nashville Plant, TN, USA
December 11st, 2007
Production Number: 171
However, there is a contradicting piece of info here:
The numbers 001-499 show Kalamazoo production, 500-999 show Nashville production. The Kalamazoo numbers were discontinued in 1984.
If the guitar was made in 2007 and its last 3 digits are below 499 and below, wouldnt it be Kalamazoo produced? And they said that kalamazoo numbers were discontinued in 1984.
Can anybody shed some light on this?
Thank you
