Serial Numbers
N4s all have a serial number on the back of the headstock using the following form:
- 2 digits for the year
- 2 digits for the month
- at least 3 digits for the actual serial number.
For instance, a 9512nnn would be the nnnth N4 produced in December 1995.
Very early N4s have a different serial number system: 3 or 4 digits for the guitar's number followed by the production year's last two digits.

Famous quotes containing the words serial and/or numbers:
“The serial number of a human specimen is the face, that accidental and unrepeatable combination of features. It reflects neither character nor soul, nor what we call the self. The face is only the serial number of a specimen.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“The principle of majority rule is the mildest form in which the force of numbers can be exercised. It is a pacific substitute for civil war in which the opposing armies are counted and the victory is awarded to the larger before any blood is shed. Except in the sacred tests of democracy and in the incantations of the orators, we hardly take the trouble to pretend that the rule of the majority is not at bottom a rule of force.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
