Dating (No, not a woman. A RR1T)

[ToneZone]

I have traded me a RR1T and I was wondering what year it is from. How do I date the guitar? I tried the Jackson website, but it shows only up to 2001.

If I don't ask, someone else will....what's your serial number? Sure plenty here have hang tags etc with dates so you can narrow it down. My Kelly is U11336 dated 7/30/02.

It is U14690

[Mudlark]

U14690 should be the fall of 2004.
Another member, Johnnyryche, has a more detailed list of numbers than I, so he may come along with the month.

Thank you very much for your help.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hope Johnny shows up fast - now I'm curious .

Nice. I too have an rr1t.

Your headstock, does it have a mother of pearl logo or a standard painted logo?

I had two RR1T models. One was from the first year of production in 2000, and that had a MOP logo. The other was from 2004 with the standard logo.

[Iceberg794]

Mines a standard logo. Great guitar.

[Mudlark]

My list says U145xx is Sept. and U148xx is Nov.

[Johnnyryche]

Mudlark is right on with his list. I have a couple others in my (unofficial) log very close to yours. So it looks like your production date is around Oct. 2004. Post a pic or let us know the other specs so I can include them in my log. Thanks and congrats!

This is it. Lightning graphics. All original. 0.10 to 0.52 strings tuned to DADGAD on it at the moment. Pretty Sweet.
