 |  [RAND-100] - Comments

Dearmond like 90% older one id say 70-80% cause of dings and scratches overtime but hey both work great and ill get pics up soon. Dearmond's serial is: KC9061492. Older one serial is: ED100382 made in use. I have a DeArmond Starfire, serial number: s/n KC 9061149 Can anyone tell how to decode this? I'd like to know when it was made. It has 'made in Korea' stamped on the back of the head- the truss rod cover says Guild Starfire.

There is a DeArmond currently for sale on ebay that first showed up as an M-75T, but sure looks like an M-77T in Solar Bronze to me...clear pickguard, no inscription on truss rod cover, Solar Bronze color.
I can't seem to find out anything about the serial numbers so here goes: This one is s/n KC01043291.
If you know how these work please let me know.
Thanks!!

The serial number indicates that this guitar was made in 2001, the end of the DeArmond run. The M-75T was replaced by the M-77T within the last 2 years of the DeArmond line.
The 'Sinlge Bump' headstock, lack of engraving on the truss-rod cover, and black pickup covers all point to this being an M-77T.
Any one else?

I would agree based on what I have read and researched on this. I was watching that guitar but bought an identical one from Chris' Guitars since I am assured of a good setup and check out from a reputable dealer. Chris had his listed as an M75T also but, based on the color, the black pup covers, the single bump headstock and the 'roller' bridge, I believe it to actually be an M77T.

I think it's conclusively an M-77T. No question in my mind, despite the terrible photography.
The reasons given above are good ones.

I may be wrong (I'm new to De Armonds), but I reckon it's more likely to be 2000 manufacture. Why I'm sticking my neck out here is that the serial on my M75-T commences KC91. So the only year it could have been made would be '99 (Obviously not '91). So the first digit stands for the year in the decade it was made not the first two digits. Any takers - or am I missing something?

KC9115xxx would be November '99.
2000 year S/N's are one digit longer so KC01043291 is April '01,
