What is the production date of my guitar?

**grazdenbas13** · 04-21-2009, 06:04 AM

Hello,

I just wanted to know if you could provide me some more information the following
-Musicman Petrucci : G 31728
-Musicman Luke : serial number 95343

I'm living in France, and it seems there is officialy no support available from France ... if my MM was not bought new in France

Is that true ???

Many thanks in advance

Sunburst black pickguard with single coils, serial# G07643
What is it dating, please?

The neck feels dry, what do I oil it with?

Thanks
Scott

Oh, and I still have the Casey Ball foundation Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young signed Amber Axis. It also would have been unplayed, but my stepson used it to show off to his friends without my Ok and its got some grimey fingerprints on the fretboard. Kids....

Scott, interesting, our records tell us that this guitar is supposed to have a Trans Orange finish ... but anything is possible since it looks like it went directly to an artist or may also have been used for a fundraiser ....

I would start by using lemon oil on the neck, it is probably just super dried-out. You may want to think about re-applying the factory gunstock oil and wax treatment .

Hi Dan -
Just took receipt of g47022. I know all bout it, just wondering when it was born.

Thanks!

I just wanted to know if you could provide me some more information the following Axis Sport : G00202

I bought her (by ebay) to a brooklyn's shop, but the plate (and tuners) were slightly unscrewed. And the guitar seems to be one of the arlier axis sport, with pickguard, a humbucker and two single coils. I just want to be sure that she got the right neckplate (and serial), and to know the name of that strange beautiful green that becomes blue thru a camera.
Thanx

Dan
You are right it is TransOrange, my mistake.
What year? G07643
Also any gunstock oil or a certain brand?
