Q: The serial number on my guitar/amp is ????? when was it made?A: Identifying the exact age is usually impossible - no records were kept of serial numbers and manufacture dates. If you read the 'Timeline' page then you should be able to make a rough guess. I have no extra knowledge - it's all there on that page and I add to the page as I learn more.
teisco et 200 serial number
I have an ET-200 Sunburst made in Japan with the serial number plate snapped in half. I bought it at a yard sale in Michigan between 2017-2018 from a man who did not say where he got it from. It could be a long shot, but I would like to ask if you think this guitar could be yours. Please e-mail me and I would be happy to share pictures with you.

The guitars in this first set of tables don't all fit well into any of the other model series'. The photos are either internet findings or photos that have been sent to me. Most of the information comes from what is purported to be a 1963 catalogue. That would date these guitars to 1963-1964, I guess. The model numbers seem to indicate later, but who knows? Some of the model numbers are duplicated in the regular 500-series but, except for the 540 and 545, the bodies are slightly different. The 560 Copa and the 595 Videocaster are older, but way cooler. Perhaps this set was a hurried series of imports trying to get in on the sudden boom in popularity of electric guitars. I won't be tracking prices on these and will only add information and photos if I stumble across something. Stumbling is what I do best.
The solid bodies of the 500-series guitars were true solid bodies, not plywood. Most of them were made ofmahogany and were finished in either "Shaded Mahogany Finish" (sunburst) or "Century Red Lacquer". The necks were usually maple or some other unspecified hardwoodwith a rosewood fretboard featuring "heavy nickel-silver frets". The necks were reinforced with a double steel T-bar and some were truss rod adjustable. I don't believethe low-end 540 and 545 Polaris's had adjustable truss rods. From what I can tell, none of the Polaris's had serial numbers, either.
Although it appears from the catalogs of the time that model numbers derive from the colors used, I find it hard to believe that color is the onlycriterion. I would think that the number of pickups would have made a difference. It's also possible that the type of tailpiece (fixed vs vibrato)could get a different model designation. The presence of binding may be a factor, also.
The catalog page for the 550, 551, and 552 show three guitars with fixed tailpiece that differ only in woods used in their construction. However the photoon this page of the 552 show a model with vibrato tailpiece. I also have a photo of the model number on the back of the headstock.
The Kent 636 12-string was very similar to the Guyatone SG-12, which was a six-string guitar. Both guitars have distinct "scooped" headstocks, dot fretboard markersand similar pickups. The Kent Americana series guitars had rectangular fretboard markers, Fender-style headstock shapes, and different pickup covers, although they mightbe identical internally. It might be better if placed in the Americana section above but I have yet to see an Americana with a 6xx model number.
The Polaris guitars were low-end beginners guitars. The can be readily identified by the rounded ends of the pickups. The 549 and 649 models had vibrato tailpieces.Given the fact that the model numbers don't fit the numbering sequence, they may have been added to plug a competitive hole in the market. Either that, or there are evenmore guitars that I don't know about.
On the plate at the back of it with the model number and serial number, it says "E-110N". He knows it's from the 60's and I've done some research and found that it's from 1969. I got a Teisco Del Rey E-110 N from my Grandad who found it in his basement. anywhere, but the same color and pickguard as the one pictured above.very nice, still has original bridge, no om - 1, 2010 at 4:57 AM How many of these things are left ? i have one that still looks almost new.i'll have to order tremolo spring, and it has no i.d.

While guitars manufactured by Teisco were ubiquitous in their day, they are now very collectable. under several brand names including Silvertone, Jedson, Kent, Kingston, Kimberly, Tulio, Heit Deluxe and World Teisco. Teisco guitars were also imported in the U.S.
A Teisco guitar can be dated by looking at the serial number on the guitar. The serial number will give you the year the guitar was made. You can also look at the features of the guitar to help narrow down the date. For example, if the guitar has a Bigsby tremolo, it was likely made in the 1950s.
This Gibson serial number is no longer available, but it has been preserved. The 8 digit number impressed in the back top of the peghead represents a year day (digits 2-4) and a day of the year (digits 1-10). 001 represents the day of the year, 365 represents the months, and The NNN (digits 6-8) of a given instrument represents the rank of that day.
If you are unsure of how old your guitar is, there are a few ways to tell. One way is to look for a serial number on the guitar. The serial number can usually be found on the back of the headstock. If your guitar has a serial number, you can use it to look up the year the guitar was made. Another way to tell how old your guitar is, is to look at the style of the guitar. For example, if your guitar has a lot of intricate carving, it is likely from the late 1800s. If your guitar has a lot of mother of pearl inlay, it is likely from the early 1900s.
For instruments made in the United States, the serial number will begin with a letter. When there is that letter, you will know that this is the decade. In most cases, the second character will be a number. This number represents the year in which a specific event occurred.
Low serial numbers can be due to a variety of factors, including rarity, condition, and history of the currency. It is considered more valuable to have bills with lower serial numbers than bills with higher serial numbers, so bills with lower serial numbers may sell for more.

Guitars made of teisco are still popular today, with notable users such as Steve Vai and Eddie Van Halen.

Who plays teisco? Since the 1960s, Teisco Del Ray guitars have been played by many musicians, including Eddie Van Halen.
