![]() ![]() Specific to the OP's question, what Custom Shop guitar are you looking at? The CS Customs are not easy to decode, ask Gibson. However guitardaterproject is a good effort and a nice tool to have for what it does people shouldn't be so quick to sneer at it. It can also report manufacturing information for a serial number that was never used but which fits formatting rules, for example a serial number for the 400th guitar made on a day when only 300 guitars were made. There are things it can't decipher, including many Gibson Custom Shop formats and some years/formats where the manufacturer's serialization technique was not well-considered/predictable. It's therefore often useful, if a known-genuine guitar is in hand, for finding out when that guitar was manufactured. One of the reasons for that is that it is not a 'database' of manufactured guitar serial numbers, it is a calculator which uses known serial number formats to produce information about the manufacture of a genuine guitar bearing the serial number provided. It doesn't claim to be - and is not - a reliable way to ensure that a guitar is genuine. too many people piss on guitardaterproject for no good reason.
