Well gibder, as it turns out I have an 2007 BB spalted. OK, the body date is DEC 27 2007, which is late late '07, but '07 nevertheless. So yours should be part of the first run too. Note that in the
Registry when searching for 'ASAT Classic Bluesboy w/Spalted Maple Top Special Build', you'll find #65 already registered with an S/N in the same ball park. This only seems to lend credence to the theory that certain necks may have been rejected leading to gaps in the numbering.
