Arctic white DK2 pro neckthru - no serial#

[Trevorg7]

Just picked this up yesterday and can't find a serial anywhere on it. I have read that mij neckthrus don't have serials but maybe someone out there has one of their own that they can talk about or maybe know when this was made.

Specs are
DK2
full arctic white except the headstock front with gray binding
looks like a deactivator in the neck and deactivator x in the bridge
ebony fretboard
floyd rose special
Normal 3 way with tone and volume
ill add pics later

If it's neck through it's not a DK. DK is for Dinky and that means bolt on neck. Serial number should be below the 24th fret in the fretboard.

Edit / I guess on some imports the serial is supposed to be on the back of the headstock. Does it look like the serial may have been removed?

[Trevorg7]

The tag said dk2 but I have searched for what was described on the tag and found nothing I'm not really a Jackson guy. But I've checked the back and the last fret and even under the trem and in the pickup cavities and can't find anything haha. It's weird because it was at guitar center and they couldn't find it either and it's flawless + the pickups look factory wired and I don't think a guitar can come standard with purple deactivators

[Grandturk]

Probably not stock Dimarzios. They come with either Duncans or cheapo Duncan Designed or Jackson pickups.

Look at the back of the headstock under the tuners and see if it looks like any damage was done to the finish there as if to remove a serial number or sticker or anything.

Pics would help too. Help us figure out if it's MIJ, MIK, MII, etc etc and narrow down a model. But never listen to anyone at guitar center.

Yea at work I'll take some good closeups the strings are off too so I can probly get a model number off the pickups

[Mudlark]

Yeah, post some pics so we can figure out what ya' got.
Since the strings are off, you could remove the neck and check for date/model stamps on the neck heel and/or in the pocket.

It's a neckthru... I think removing the neck would be a bit difficult.

Nothing a good bandsaw can' t fix, just ask Grover Jackson

Looks like an SLX. The purple DiMarzios look cool.

[Mudlark]

Someone must have removed the serial number sticker from the back of the headstock. The SLX had a serial stamped on the fret board up until 2012ish, then the stickers were used.

All of those pictures, and not a single one of the heel?



***yes, one far away picture.
I must have missed it the first time.
