Have you any idea? I'm not sure about when and where (custom shop or whatever) it was made and stuff. If you were so kind to make it clear for me I would be eternally greateful. Thank you.

Rastich, unfortunately, no serial number records exist for the Sabre and StingRay guitars. The records we know of show that the Sabre guitars, both I and II, were introduced in 1978 and most of them were shipped in 1979-80. However, unlike the basses, the guitars were not very brisk sellers - and the last known production on Sabres was in 1982 (the StingRay guitars ceased production in 1979). By that time, apparently things were unraveling for the old Music Man company. Ernie Ball, Inc. purchased the stuggling company in 1984, but we never made the old guitars - our first model was the Silhouette, which as we know, is a stellar guitar still in production today.

Your LE 2007 JP 7 in Blue Dawn was completed on Aug 29/07 and was shipped to Drum City GuitarLand near Denver, Colorado.

nice collection -

Dan

Jim, your all-white Silhouette Special was completed on 12/14/98. It was originally sent to Charvel Music in Paradise, northern Ca, (now OOB) - if memory serves, I delivered this guitar to the store myself as I was going up to Chico anyway!

Congrats on your new guitar!
