Greetings I'm trying to get my head around the cryptic world of the Gibson serial number vs FON.
I'm in the process of purchasing a blacktop snakehead model a-0 and its SN and FON seem pretty out of whack.
The SN is 81046 dating it around 1924/25 and the FON assures me that it's a mb-0(?) made in 1927.
I love the sound, it's in excellent shape but I don't know what it's worth given that it's on the fringe of the Loar era instrument.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated
