Hi guys, can anyone help me out on this one: I can't find this serial number anywhere E96242. Bought it new at the dealer approx in 1994 or 1995.
This is the reply I got from CS at Fender:
Quote:
Unfortunately, I was not able to retrieve any information on the serial number you have provided. This serial number appears to be a model that was produced in the late 80’s very early 90’s. Our serial number database only dates back to 1993. When the company was acquired from CBS, they did not provide us with any manufacturing information.


Tks

P.S. Great community. Love reading these posts, you guys are awesome better than any database ! :D

I think I found something. This guy has the same serial number type as my JB.
They refer to it as the 'Boner' or 'Long Horn' model.

It actually looks identical to mine!

Hi, I also have a "boner" jazz bass with the serial number starting with E followed by 9 and four digits. I bought mine second hand the the seller said it's original.

Sadly it has been really difficult to track the manufacturing date.

PS: if I could only new how to upload images I would share some!

Players with mystery serial numbers. Realize that this forum is based in the USA, like Fender, but Fender uses a different serial number system for exported instruments. Most references on this forum deal with the USA serial number system. Numbers that don't agree with the US convention are probably export instruments and certainly if the owners are in other countries, that is likely why we can't place your serial numbers in our database.
