HELP regarding serial# needed

[JimmyApollo]

Probably not a fake - it's usually not worth faking a neck-through. Some guitars escaped the shop without a serial number, but they don't seem to be too common.

This definitely happens sometimes. My WR1 was delivered about a month ago without a SN#. You can check out the thread here:

Right now Matt is finding out what happened. As soon as I know I will post more.

Re: HELP regarding serial# needed

thanx, everyone.
Now I'm sure it's not a fake - it has "made in usa" on the headstock, seymours, original floyd, ebony fretboard, abalone inlays. Everything shows it's a USA made guitar. Looks like someone forgot about putting a serial at the factory : )

I'll visit my friend to see it in person, but now I can tell him that he shouldn't return it to seller.

Thanks again,
Max

Re: HELP regarding serial# needed

We have a SL2H with a partial seriel at work. Only the first couple of charactors came out in the process. Just the UO 9 is all that can be read. So maybe it was serielized but the stamper didnt hit the hammer hard nough.
