Just came across this little group of Epi's on Aussie Ebay. Serial numbers start with LU and then eight digits. Anyone have any idea what country is denoted by the letters LU. All guitars appear to be made in 2009 so would have thought there would be no letters in serial number just digits.

Does Australia have a customs department ?

USA Customs drop the ball when incoming " gift " guitars are sent on through to their destinations.
