    We can reference our records with your serial number to find out when the guitar was built. The serial numbers do not contain dating information.

    Thanks,

    Mike - try posting this in the sticky thread called "IMPORTANT: My Ernie Ball's Serial Number is . . ."

    EBMM's Customer Service checks that routinely and answers questions up there; they sometimes miss individual threads.

    hehe.. at first i thought someone wanted to meet up and crosstest eb guitars.. then i saw the date the original post was made

    MrM
    just put flats on the bongo!!
    just put roundwounds on your fretless!!

    eb customer support:
    E-mail: musicman_customerservice@ernieball.com
    Telephone: +1 866-823-2255

    trussrod adjustment:
    Click here for an image!
    less relief / flatter = lower action
    more relief / bow = higher action
    do NOT use cheap tools to adjust with. they might break and scrape up your pressious!
    also, if you are lucky enough to have a 100th namm sr4: the truss works the other way around on that one!

    I hear that the carbon blue pearl models are easiest to date.
