I never saw this part of the website before but if you have the time I would be interested in knowing the history of this one. adriaan Senior Member Username: adriaan Post Number: 676 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Wednesday, December 14, 2005 - 12:27 am:    The S/N would be 82 for the year, then an S for a Spoiler, and finally four digits - so your number must be off. It would make sense if it was something like: 82 S 2218. dibolosi Junior Username: dibolosi Post Number: 18 Registered: 1-2004 Posted on Friday, December 16, 2005 - 8:35 am:    More than likely, it's my eyesight that is off. Curse the aging process I'll have to double check this when I get home mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 2909 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Thursday, December 29, 2005 - 4:57 pm:    I hope it's not 2218 - that one isn't in the drawer hopefully it will turn up. However, as a Spoiler with a decal, I can tell you with 95% certainty that it's got solid a Koa body, Maple neck, Ebony fingerboard with pearloid oval inlays. dibolosi Junior Username: dibolosi Post Number: 20 Registered: 1-2004 Posted on Thursday, December 29, 2005 - 5:40 pm:    It is, in fact, 82 S 2218. Does this mean I'm jinxed? It looks to be Koa wood and it definitely has the decal. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 2917 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Thursday, December 29, 2005 - 5:43 pm:    You're not jinxed, Alain. It probably means that whoever looked up information on it before misfiled it when they put it away. As I get these records in a database, I'm hoping to run across these missing files, I'll let you know if I do!
