|
|
I own a BTB406QM and have seen in various places that you can date Ibanez gear by the serial number. I've heard the first letter indicates where it was made and the first number is the year, etc.
My serial number is W412976. With 4 as the first number, I can't imagine it was made in "94. Any help would be appreciated. |

I have to assume this is a 1994 model, based on the information.
Thanks for your help. _________________ Just thumpin' along.... |

Just an FYI
I contacted Ibanez and serial numbers for Korean-made BTB basses mean nothing for dating purposes. The closest I can get is that these basses began production in 2001. Not the answer I wanted to hear, but according to Ibanez, I am one of many, including other different model owners. _________________ Just thumpin' along.... |
