Schecter Serial Number Dater

Location: Leeds, UK. Anyone know how I can find out how old this Schecter strat I have is? And if it was made during the Texan period or before? The serial Number is A0008.

  1. Schecter Serial Numbers. Schecter have been slightly mysterious about how their serial numbering works. As a general rule you can tell the year was built by looking at the first two numbers of the serial. EG: L08123541 would have been built in 2008.
  2. Okay so I want to know what year my guitar is and when it was made and all that but I can't find anywhere how to decode my serial number.
  3. For example, for serial number 0236758, the '02' indicates that the guitar was made in 2002; for serial number W10052743, the '10' indicates that the guitar was made in 2010. Schecter began as a parts manufacturer and eventually began making their own complete guitars, so from the late 70s to around 1998, when the Diamond Series was introduced there are a lot of guitars that don't follow the first two digits rule.
  4. This website possesses NO DATABASE of guitars made by manufactures, instead simple serial code patterns that are available on this site and in the wider guitar community are used. It follows that potential scammers can use this knowledge to try to trick unsuspecting buyers.
  5. Yes, most definitely dallas, not sure around 1983. It is hard to tell by serial number, from my understanding. If we are talking about the same guitar, the 21 frets generally makes it earlier, so 1983 seems reasonable. Later ones has 22 frets, sometimes TM near the schecter (TM) logo on the headstock, and sometimes Schecter labelled Schaller.

Most guitar manufacturers put a serial number on each instrument they produce. This number can be used to date a guitar and in some cases tell where it was made. Serial numbers tend to be stamped or written somewhere on the headstock or neck joint of the guitar. On some acoustic guitars, the serial number is on the inside of the sound hole. Serial numbers are often at least four digits long, and they sometimes include letters.

Search the area around the serial number for a date stamp. Not all guitar brands use date stamps, but if you find one, you have your answer.

Look for the brand name decal on the guitar's headstock. Each guitar brand uses a different set of serial numbers, so you need to identify your guitar before you attempt to use the serial number to learn when it was made.

Determine the type of guitar (such as Gibson Les Paul or SG, Fender Stratocaster or Telecaster) if possible. This can help when you are researching serial numbers. This information is often written on the headstock or truss rod cover. An online search of the brand name can help you do this.

Visit the manufacturer's website and look for serial number information. Many guitar makers have brand-specific serial number information on their web pages, usually in the 'Support,' 'FAQ,' or 'Info' sections. Sometimes third-party websites also have solid information on guitar serial numbers.

Email the serial number to the manufacturer and ask for help. Attach a few high-quality pictures of the guitar to the email to assist the manufacturer.

For example, model numbers '43F7A' and ' 903F90A' decode as follows: '4' and '90' identify the outboard's horsepower; in this case, 4-horsepower and 90-horsepower, respectively. The '3' in both examples refers to a long-leg outboard with no power trim, while the letter 'F' stands for Force. The '7' and '90' digits correspond to the year, with '7' indicating 1987 and '90' indicating 1990. Location serial number. Identify the Force outboard using a model designation key. The final position stands for any engineering changes made to the engine; in this case, 'A' identifies the outboard's first modification.
