Seriously, if you look at the details of GIbson's even from the 20's, 30's and 40's, they've always marched to their own drummer. A bit frustrating at times for those of us who need some order in the universe, but that oddity seems to be in Gibson's DNA. Keeps 'em interesting though.

I sorta' alluded to that.
I wanted to "break the Gibson code" and got a book and then spouted off all sorts of s/n's and dates. Then a really knowledgeable fellow asked me if my "authority" was, "The Gibson Guitar -- From 1950" by Ian Bishop.
I said it was.
He said it was filled with errors. I later found out that he was correct. My copy now had "Not good info" written on the front with a broad point Sharpie.
Gibson will always be Gibson.
