First year?

[danktat]

Does anyone know what the first year is that the acoustic SE A20E, A40E and A60E were put out? I thought that they were released in 2018. I looked at the label in the sound hole of mine and it says 2017. Just wondering if mine was made in 2017, but released that next year. She was "born" in December. I guess my question is, is this one of the earliest of this model? Or were they out prior to 2018?

Side note: Mine was before they put binding on the fretboard.

Don’t know the answer, but nice shot.

Those struts look nicely finished.

I'd guess they made a bunch to get out to dealers. so they'd have some in stock on the date of release. That's usually what we see.

But 2018 WAS the release date on the A40 - 5- & 60 correct?

Yeah, I noticed that too. The INSIDE of the guitar seems to be as QC'd as the outside. You don't often see that on guitars in this price range.

Oh, I have no idea!

Release date and build date are two different things.

I once had a date.

The thing I remember most from my grandma was the bar of soap in my mouth! Well, that and the strawberry schaum torte she made!!
