Gibson B45-12-N

I'd like confirmation of production year (1964?) and value (resale & insurance.) Sorry about the quality of the serial number (159586) but it's hard to stay under 1MB! Thanks.

ANSWER

Hi, rtill--

The serial number does indicate that your guitar was made at the Kalamazoo Plant, USA in 1964.

Here is the Blue Book general info:

B-45-12/B-45-12N
- slope shouldered large body, spruce top, round soundhole, tortoise pickguard, two-stripe bound body/rosette, mahogany back/sides/neck, 14/20-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot inlay, rosewood bridge with adjustable saddle, trapeze tailpiece, blackface peghead with pearl split diamond inlay/logo decal, six-per-side nickel tuners with plastic buttons, available in Tobacco Sunburst, Natural and Cherry Sunburst finish, mfg. 1961-1979.

The pricing info:

1962-1964
Excellent $1,650 - 2,000
Average $1,100 - 1,300

Best Wishes,
Lynne

Iwas wondering what year this was made and where to get one of the pearl insets?

Thanks Angie

Hi, Angie--

The serial number indicates that your guitar was made at the Kalamazoo or Nashville Plant , USA
