What Year Was My Martin Guitar Built?
Serial Numbers Used To Date Martin Guitars
First locate the Serial number on your Martin® guitar. (The Model number is not necessary to find the date of manufacture.) Serial numbers are found on the neck block.
Looking inside the soundhole and toward the neck you will find the serial number and model stamped on the neck block.
The model number is above, the serial number is below it.
How To Read The Chart Below
The serial numbers denote the last serial number used in that year.
Example: Serial Number 439628 was built in 1983 as the last serial number made in 1982 was 439627.
Serial numbers listed do not apply to Martin Backpackers® or Little Martin® guitars. Contact the factory for production dates on those instruments.

«According to the Blue Book of Acoustic Guitars, the 8-digit Takamine serial numbers have a form of YYMMDDXX, where the first two digits are the year; the second two, the month; the next two, the day; and the last two as the nth instrument made that day. If a 9-digit number, the last three digits would be the nth instrument made that day»,

DATING MARTIN GUITARS AND MANDOLINS
BY REFERENCE OF SERIAL NUMBERS
It’s actually a lot easier than you may think. Because in contrast to Gibson or Fender,
C.F. Martin the serial numbers simply used in sequence starting 1898. An exception are the electric solidbody guitars.
By means of the serial number of your Martin can therefore quite precise date of production be determined.
Where to find the serial number
Look in the sound hole of the guitar in the direction of the neck and you see on the neck block model and serial numbers are stamped. Above: model. Below: serial number.
If you want to know the production year of your Martin guitar or mandolin, you can decipher it with the serial number decoder, or find it in the tables below.
Since end-19th century, Martin make one of the best flat top acoustic guitars.
All Martin Guitars are numbered in sequential order since 1898. With the exception of the electric models.
Because Martin had estimated that in 1898 around 8000 instruments had been built, the series numbering starts in 1898 with 8000.

| For mandolins a different serial number system was used than for guitars. Only from 1991 to 1993 are the serial numbers of the mandolins from the same set used for guitars. Источник |
