Gene, you have already given me the info on my four Sho-Buds, but I just want to say again how great it is that you have come forward and been willing to take the time to dispel the fog of uncertainty that we Sho-Bud owners had come to accept we'd have to be resigned to. You, sir, are a class act! Thanks so much! ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

Gene,
I am not as good as I used to be so without you giving me the serial # I can't get the information.
The serial # should be located on the underside, keyhead end of the guitar. It should be stamped on the cross piece of the endplate and the body also.
If you can send this info. I will try to date them.
Thanks

Gene I have a SuperPro #16460.
I talked to Harry Jackson in Dallas and he thinks it may be around the early 80's.
Do you know for sure?

Hi Gene. I hope that you will take some time off, and let someone help you put the info down in a format that we can use to find out on our own, instead of having to keep you so busy.
Thanks |
