Update to FAQ: I am fairly certain the 10th digit was added to the JS30xx (MII) series starting at the very beginning of 2008. A guitar with the serial number 'U01234' is You-zero-one-two-three-four. Jackson guitar guide for Buyers and Sellers. I will update the first post's FAQ accordingly.ĭesign Doll Crack. There probably are few 8 digit MII JS30xx guitars because all the early guitar serials posted on JCF in 20 showed the 9 digit scheme. Sometime early in the development of the new MII JS30xx series the serial scheme changed to the 2004xxxxx 9 digit MII serial scheme. It now appears that early 2004 JS30xx guitars made for the 2005 catalog year followed the 8 digit MII serial scheme that the MII JS line (JS20 / JS1) and the MII X series used since since 1996/1998 (8 digits with the first two digits denoting the year, 96xxxxxx=1996, 04xxxxxx=2004). The serial numbers for those late 2004 JS30xx guitars appeared to follow the 9 digit MII (Made in India) serial scheme (2004xxxxx) we saw until 2008 when they added a 10th digit. Update to FAQ: Serial numbers from Sunbane and an old JS30DK confirmed something I suspected for some time: The JS30DK/DKT/RR/KV/KE/WR series that was made for the 2005 catalog year had some guitars built in late 2004 (posts were made here on JCF in 11/2004).
I think it might be helpful for people trying to decode Jackson Import serial numbers if a centralized serial number / Country of Origin FAQ could be put together.
