Hey gang, I'm back again, this time looking for some info and DOB for

G15220

Many thanks, as always, in advance!

John, that is a very good find! Your new-to-you Albert Lee MM90 in the Gunsmoke (rather short-lived and thus pretty rare) finish was completed on July 17, 2001

Nice - !

Since the BFR photo gallery is locked...

"Here is the official picture thread where we will post every BFR that leaves the factory. We will include the instrument destination, dealer contact information, serial number, and DOB."

Does anyone know if that thread has EVERY one on it? Using the forum's search function I couldn't find mine on there by the DOB or serial number.

The first few hundred weren't photographed, and there are probably about 100 that haven't been photo'ed since then. I will edit the thread to "we will try". Anyone can get the info any time by e-mailing us at musicman_customerservice.com

Thanks!

Hi!

I'm looking for some info on Silhouette s/n 97921. I've just found an interesting auction in Poland with the guitar:

MUSIC MAN SILHOUETTE (423718357) - Aukcje internetowe Allegro

It's 3x single coil config, black with black pickguard. I was just wondering how old it is and where it was originally shipped to...

Best regards!
Jacob

Jacob, this SSS Silhouette was completed on 06/20/96 and was originally shipped to Music Land in Merrick, NY (now gone).

Silhouette - 88073

EVH - 80600

Thanks!

Jon

Jon, nice guitars, and so close by! Unfortunately the serial number record of the 88073 was deleted, so the information is lost on that.

Your EVH in Trans Purple was completed on 2/14/92, and interestingly enough, was originally sold to an EBMM employee. ;)


Music Man Axis Sport MM90
serial# G06132
Your Axis Sport in the Pearl Platinum finish and maple fretboard was completed on 5/05/99 and was shipped to a Sam Ash store.

Mine is G41698. What can you tell me about it?

Rok, yours is an Axis in Honeyburst, built on 7/9/08 and shipped to the Long & McQuade folks in Canada.

Congrats and appreciation to all -

Dan

Thanks Dan,

Yes, they were both employee purchases.

The silo has a neck and body date of Dec. 88 and Jan 89, so, I would guess it was made in early 89. It was purchased by a good friend of mine (former employee) who played it for a while and then sold it to me.

The EVH actually went to NAMM that year, and was sold to another buddy of mine who worked in he woodshop for a few years. He didn't play, so, I bought that straight from him so, I am really the original owner. :D

Again thanks for your help, it's good to have a record.
