That isn't a MODCAT number. 2000 is right around when the system started, so yours might pre-date it. If you do have one, the MODCAT will be in the bridge pickup rout and they used stick a label with it on the case.

Stupid question and it may have been answered ..... The MODCAT number is the same number listed on the sticker attached to the case?

Hey fellas, I cannot locate my MOD CAT see below. My guitar is a Wood Library CU24 Floyd.

That same ITEM number: WL0805_U3 appears on a sticker on the back of the hang tag.

Any Ideas?

Wood Library models don’t use the MODCAT system.

Wood Library models don’t use the MODCAT system.

Good to know. Thanks!

PRS CE24 (Faded Grey Black Cherry Burst Satin):

As it didn't come with a case I guess it's that part on the sticker on the gig bag:
<serial number> E4TBC3_GE_NSN_-NE

Model: Could not find Model 'E4'
Top Wood: Could not find Top Wood 'T'
Frets: Could not find Frets 'B'
Top Spec: Could not find Top Spec 'C'
Top Grade: Could not find Top Grade '3'
Neck Wood: Could not find Neck Wood '_'
Neck Carve: Grissom
Fingerboard Wood: Gaboon Ebony
Inlay: Could not find Inlay '_'
Bridge: Could not find Bridge 'N'
Color: Slate/Natural Back
Hardware: Nickel
Treble Pickup: 12 String
Middle Pickup: Could not find Middle Pickup 'undefined'
Bass Pickup: Could not find Bass Pickup 'undefined'
Electronics: Could not find Electronics 'undefined'

The whole scheme looks somewhat different to what I've seen here so far...

Here's the details:

Or is only input needed from models up to 2013?

Hmmmmmm......The link in the original post can't seem to decode my model. It can get everything except for the "CB" in the beginning. I am assuming it is just "Custom Briazilian"....but the decoder doesn't come up with it.

I'd be interested in updating the modcat decoder. The codes themselves don't work so well for my 594 Soapbar and I've already spent some time last night updating the code on the site to use ES6 style Javascript. Should I start from this thread, start a new one or?

I must have signed up for this forum years ago but this is my first post here. I have the same username on TGP, AGF, TDPRI, Strat-talk, and possibly some of the Ibanez forums.

I've got it hosted on GitHub (popular repository for sharing code).

If you know how to program, have some time, and use some of the modcodes here that don't work to test, you can contribute by submitting a pull request: https://github.com/DChandlerP/ModCatDecoder
