Found a gem (I hope) on Ebay. Seller couldn't tell me the serial, because it's in storage on a different location.

From the picture (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v285/promt/MM_AxisSS_asb_maple_NT/DSC00391.jpg) I'm guessing the serial is
G28254.

Does this lead to a SS HH fixed bridge cherry with mathing headstock?

Thanks!

JP - G27611
SUB - X12689

Thanks

So, Guyz and girls, I have a new guitar and it's ... an EBMM (that was really hard to guess, I suppose)

Its serial number is g34501 - I'd be very lucky to get a birthdate (and some more info on it, if possible - where it was originally shipped to, etc)

Hi:) My new Silhouette's serial number is 94429, can you date it please? :rolleyes:

Axis Super Sport-Trem-Maple Board-non matching HS: #G33152

Nick, here's your info:

G27611 - completed on 3/09/05
X12689 - 1/27/05

Both of these were sent to Long & McQuade in Canada.


DK, your Silhouette 20th was completed on 01/03/07 and shipped to Grand Central Music in Duluth, Minnesota.


barto, your new-to-you Silhouette with the Floyd Rose tremolo is a Natural finish completed on 12/10/93 and shipped to the old Rhythm City store in Atlanta, Georgia (now a GC).


Meedley, your Axis SuperSport's production date is 8/02/06.


MarkNL, that is an incorrect serial number, and this thread is only for owners only. Please email me at [email protected] if you need more info. Thanks.

Congratulations to all on their new guitars!! :D:D

Oh well, a piezo is a neat toy, isn't it, and a piezo on a gorgeous bass is even more exciting.
But then again, I'd need a completely different setup to play a piezo-equipped MM guitar...

Thank you

Hi and thanx a lot!

Very very nice axes, #93202 with Floyd Rose still working well, a little bit heavy but great sound!

Thanx again and greetings from Germany!

my silhouette is serial # 88254, can you date it? thank you.

wdw,

Welcome!

Unfortunately, we can't get you an exact date on this one. As I have mentioned in other posts, the earliest Silhouette serial numbers were not kept track of well and many times the same serial numbers were used again on the Edward Van Halen guitars, and unfortunately, that is the case with yours. Sorry I can't be more specific other than to state that your guitar was most likely made around 1987-88.
