The place to discuss, post photos, video, and audio of the G&L products (US instruments, stomp boxes, etc.) produced after 1991, including the amps & gear we use with them.

Welcome aboard! The short answer is no. You need to pull the neck. The one work-around often mentioned is looking in the registry to see what serial #'s (and year(s) provided they were entered correctly by the registrant) bracket yours. But if you want to really know... :)
