Can anyone tell me how to date my Miller Custom? It has a stamped SN on the end plate.

Or, who might know?

On my double neck which is a fairly early one the serial number appears to be the date. which put mine to be october of 1965. Does your serial number have any kind of letters or is it all numbers?

Thanks, Daniel.

Here's the number off the guitar. I think it's a later one because the machining is way, way better than the first one I had.

DC20 2044471X

Do you make any sense out of that?

As near as I can tell, Rick, your guitar will be made February 4, 4471 and you have some kind of time machine.

How does the Just Tuning debate turn out?
