There are basically four distinct formats, also called identifiers, in w. By 1966, epiphone sales amounted to some $3 million a year Simply checking a serial number with gibson yields just about the same result, becuase real numbers are showing up on fakes

Gibson needs photos and the serial# for a proper id.
Gibson finishes its guitars (elec & acoustic) with nitrocellulose lacquer
1947 to present collectibility rating They have thinner bodies, satin finishes & maybe some other differences What do you guys think Thanks for contacting gibson brands
For gibson to start producing quality guitars they have to make one simple change, get rid of the neck heel that hides the joint between the tenon and the body If they do that then they can make modern gibsons sound like vintage gibsons and they can have better results from a short tenon than they now have with a long tenon. I am a huge gibson fan, dating back to 1963 when i bought my first one I currently have three great current model gibsons
I am a little bewildered, however, by gibson’s vos finish characteristics
Their rendition of an aged finish is a rough semi gloss finish that, to me, looks quite odd In 1960, gibson put in another big building at the north end of the gibson plant and moved all of their epiphone people out of the start up facility into it (the official address was bush street)
