Or 'R' (refurb) will be part of the original 1,965 guitars, of each version, made. Released, either! The contract/agreement with the Lennon estate is for only 1965 of each model! ANY 'b' stock, So, it would seem, that a guitar with a 2008 construction date, is valid! There were 'no over-runs,' It, at least to their dealers (and probably on thier web-site) once the Ltd Edition is completed. So, there was no 'cut-off' date, regarding production.as of yet, anyway. They didn't make all 1,965 of each version, in 1 or 2 runs, but do a few, as orders are made, and shipmentsĬompleted. OK' date=' Gibson Customer Service ('Benton' was the person I spoke to) said they are still being made,Īnd that the 1965 number IS the cutoff.but not all 1,965 of each have been made, yet.or, so it seems.
