Hello All,

Looking for information on the original Fender D'Aquisto elite/standard arch tops. According to my research, it is my understanding that the prototypes were made in 83, and then the rest in 84 and 85. Does anyone here know how to discern if a model was made in 84 or 85? I am specifically interested in tracing the production year of serial E524097 - I am pretty sure it is 84, but it could be 85 as well - does anyone know the digit cut-off that makes it 84 or 85?

Thanks

Hi there,
Well believe it or not, the search engines have a fair amount of info on the D'Aquistos.
Not sure if I can find the serial number scheme in our records.....but here is a good start...
http://axvault.com/2011/10/30/fender-daquisto-models-some-interesting-facts/
and
http://www.masterseriesguitars.com/

To the best of my knowledge there were no Fender D'Aquisto's before 1985. I recall inspecting them sometime in fall of 85.....but that's an off the top of my head memory....could be later.

Hope that helps a bit.
All the best,
rob
