Hello,

I have a jem 77FP with the serial number #060xxx.

How can I know in what year was my guitar made?

I read in some place that this serial number is not a real serial number,
so what is the meaning of that?

Thanks

it could mean it was changed, which sucks,

or it could mean u have some 'special' jem.

I don't want to put too much emphasis on my knowledge here, but judging by the responses to other people that have posted about 'odd' jems, its probably that someone changed it.

but I suspect u'll get a reply from rich or someone who will be able to tell u the real facts. I could be totally wrong! Wouldn't be the first time!

More info needed.

Plate #?

JEM plate?

Pickups direct mounted or guard mounted?

And serial # sticker on the back of the head?

here you have the info Rich,

In the head i don´t have any number...., but i can promise you that it is a jem neck.

The plate is a jem with the #060170 made in Japan (of course).
Pickups direct mounted, I don´t need to remove the guard to work with the pickups.

It is a second hand guitar, and I have a floral pattern that i didn´t see before in any picture. The old owner doesn´t know anything.

I bought it in Germany.

could that help you Rich?

Just one of those oddball plate #'s I can never remember. Figure it's a 92', 93' would have a serial sticker on the head.

so tell me,

Is it a normal jem 77FP? (I hope so) I mean, the quality is the same, isn´t it?

I've never seen an *ab*normal one
