| Does anyone know if the serial number on Emmons guitars tell when they were built? If not, how can I found out on my steel? Thanks for any help on this issue. |

| Paul,I believe p/p have numbers that are sometimes serial and sometimes invoice numbers. Legrandes are numbered sequentially, presumably L001 to L4000,or as many as they made! My 1993 Legrande L1153 |

| My LL2 is 1216L, so it would probably be either a late 1993, or early 1954. |

| I must have hit the 5 instead of the 9 for 1994. Sorry 'bout that. Anyway, I sure love the Emmons. |

Paul, Feb 2000 is my educated guess. Can't be off more than a month in either direction. Unless yours was pushed ahead or held back for some reason.

I’m kind of surprized there isn’t a list of Emmons serial with dates. We have lists like that for ShoBud, Supro and others. Why not Emmons?

That list is mostly correct.
However, I had 1464D (Black mica D-10) that I bought new, custom ordered in April and delivered in May 1971. According to the S/N list it would be a 1970 model.
I've read posts of others that were "out of sequence". |
