Decoding Korean serial numbers?

[Dkr84]

I have a Korean G-400. It, as all Koreans, don't have letters in the serial number. How do I decode it? The online decoder says it was made in the 90s and was the 10, 515 one made. Is that accurate?

There are many Korean made G-400 with letters in the serial# !

How should anybody tell you if you don't show the serial# ???

All of my Korean guitars have a letter at the beginning of the serial number. They dropped the letter here in the last few years and only way to know where it was made is either give us pics or if it the made in where ever sticker still on it.

I could be wrong but the 90's still had letters. Are you sure the first one isn't an I and you're taking it as a 1?

You can tell where it's been made from the serial# without letters, too

I'm sure there is, I'm just not up on the newer Epi's.

They all have letter prefixes, except the factory 2nds.
