My L-GO
by: Anonymous

Lynn, Thank you for your reply. I have found out more since though. A magnifying glass confirmed it is an L-GO and through Gruen's I figured out the number inside is a factory order number (FON).
The T representing the year,(in this case you were right 1958)
The following four digits are the batch number (i.e. batch no 6318)
And the last two digits are the guitar's no in the batch (no 11 in the batch)
Thank you for your help and I hope this helps you with other's inquiries as well.

My L-GO
by: Benton

Lynn, is there a model L-OO? (it looks like one or the other.)
The model no is hard to read. I was told by someone it was a L-GO, and from other pictures I've seen that is what it looks like. As far as the date that same person researched the ser# and gave me the date. The ser# is very clear so I know that is right.
Maybe I'll try Gibson to see if I can search by ser# and get a more solid date of mfg.
Thanks.
Benton
