Hey guys,
I have a gilmour relic strat with a serial number of R43083. Do you know what number this guitar was in production?
I'm guessing the R stands for Relic.

During his stop over in Paris in his Road Show, ME explained to us that to avoid distortion in the value of any guitar in limited editions, they just put serial number plates on several hooks on a wall and the CS staff were picking them as and when. When needed new plates were piled up onto the extisting ones thus shuffling any possibility of relation between the serial number and the date of ineption of the guitar.
