Question I was recently reading a corrispondace you had with a guy named Frank. He
talked about his FG 300 having a yellow lable not a red lable. Mine also is the
yellow lable but seems quite old. I cannot find a ser.#.though. Was that usually
on the lable or elsewhere on the guitar. I love it but wish I could learn more of
it's age and value. Can you help me? Randy
Answer Usually on the Neck block, or stamped just above the label.
Sometimes there is one on the label also.. Sometimes it matches the one on the neck block, sometimes it doesn't. go figure. anyway, That is where I would look.
