Blue G&L Skyhawk

Post by Catfish42 »

I just picked up this Skyhawk a few weeks and I was just wondering if I can easily find out the exact age? I have and old receipt from 1988 in the case so I know it was made around then. The serial # on the back is G016820.

I downloaded your photos to my Gallery and resized them so that they could be posted inline here:

You might contact G&L's Customer Support and ask Tech Support for the factory log details on this guitar, including the completion date.

Once you get the completion date, please do add your Clear Blue Skyhawk to our G&L Registry.

Hope this helps.
