I sent him a message asking if he saved all the information for these guitars, but I donвЂ™t know what will be lost in the language translation, of if heвЂ™ll even get back to me.

IвЂ™ve started a list of guitars IвЂ™ve found (including 3 of mine) with the model number, the serial number, and the date code, which will allow the 6 & 7 digit serial numbers to be grouped into a range for each year, allowing any 6 or 7 digit serial number to be cross referenced to the year it was made.

IвЂ™ve also found there are internal date codes that will reveal when the guitar was made.Дate Code located on one of the interior sides of the guitar.

But the 6 & 7 digit numbers (located on the neck block) are just sequential numbers used by all the guitars they built, not just the FGвЂ™s. ItвЂ™s widely known that the 8 digit serial numbers start with the year as the first number. My latest interest is decoding the mystery of the 6 & 7 digit serial numbers.

This past May Yamaha deleted their Yamaha Guitar Archive web page, pushing me to start a forum to share the info that IвЂ™ve collected, including all the data from the Yamaha Guitar Archive.

IвЂ™ve been collecting data on vintage Yamaha FG acoustic guitars for a few years. WANTED вЂ“ Data from your vintage Yamaha FG guitars.
