Serial Number Database Sharing

[RacerX]

I have a Rhoads Js series NHJ1028011. I don't understand what the NHJ is for, or a serial# that starts with 1. Does decoding this number mean it was made in 2011?

Hmmm, I have heard of the NHJ prefix recently (don't know what it means though)....so this is a new serial code system....hmmmm (strokes beard)

Dr Loomis!

I have now figured out that NHJ is the new prefix for the India factory, and the 4th & 5th digits indicates the year. So,

NHJ10xxxxxxx = Made in India 2010

My japanese KVX10 has 9846939.
Could anyone tell me what year this is?

Around 2008 - 2010

Unless somebody wants to correct me...

From my vast wealth of knowledge and experience I would say mid to late 2009.

Help me with the year please. TIA

I believe having spent literally months rubbing and carefully attempting to extract what is left of my serial number from the USA KV2 to be:- U14289
Any info appreciated!

I am really so curious about this. Body wood is much heavier than alder, doesnt sound like alder at all.
Doesnt sound muddy and has lots of mid range.
Its a fixed bridge, made in japan. I wasnt aware they made these in 2008/2009??? Here is a pic.

PS-4 MIK (I think)
1017688

Previous owner said he bought it new in '99 but I'm sure it was a leftover '97 or so model since the serial doesn't start with a 9.



2011 KV Deluxe "Shuriken" MII

NHJ1111994

Bought this for my son this past Christmas. He loves the thing. I also read that it was a very limited production model, like less than 300 made.

Sure. The body after 2006 was basswood I believe.

Yes that looks like a Korea #. Couldn't tell you the year though. Your 2nd sentence doesn't make sense. The 9 in Japanese serials of this era does not notate the year.

2011 KV Deluxe "Shuriken" MII

NHJ1111994

Yes, NHJ = Made in the Harmony plant in India, the next 2 digits (11) denote year 2011.

Thanks! Sorry I thought that the Serials that start with a 9 are from Japan. Here's a pic of the rear cavity.



I was really hoping it was a MIJ model but it's ok, it does seem like its very well built.

Serial # : (000)0092646 (I don't have the guitar with me, I just have the tag that was with it..)

Can you tell me anything 'bout it?
