Location: Phoenix AZ		Just got the new 1627-4X Glen Campbell Torrified (USA made in New Hartford) from Al Pepiak. STELLAR GUITAR.

I am curious about the serial numbering, which is 18051502. The signed Certificate Of Authenticity says it was made in May of this year (which could be interpreted as YYMM, ie 1805). Is it a coincidence that 1805 is the first 4 digits of the serial number? And if so what does the last 4 digits mean ... surely they did not make 1500 guitars.

Just curious.

PS - Huge thanks to the Bullet driving PI for safe keeping and personal door to door delivery.

First 2 = Year 
Second 2 = Month 
Third 2 = Day 
Fourth 2 = what number for the day (rare to see past 03)

Your guitar was the 2nd built on 5/15/18
