Epiphone Pr 350 Serial Number

Epiphone Pr 350 Serial Number Rating: 3,1/5 7222 votes
  • The Epiphone serial number decoder currently supports 12 serial number formats from 25 factories. Vintage numbers from 1932 to 1970 are supported. Serial numbers from 70' and 80's era Epiphone guitars made in Japan are not supported.
  • I am trying to date my PR 350e and find out country of manufacture. It has a square label with a thick black internal border and a thin border inside that with just epiphone, model number and serial no. It has a Gibson truss rod cover and snowflake fret inlay's and a tortoise shell pick guard.
  • NOTE – Gibson USA goes to a 9 digit serial number in early July 2005. The sixth number is now a batch number- batch 0 starts at the beginning of the day, and once we stamp 699, the batch number will change to 1. The first 5 numbers remain the same, the last 3 numbers will remain the same. The only difference is the addition of this batch.
  • Rare 1993 Epiphone PR-350ME NS Six String Acoustic Guitar Inspired by Gibson for Parts/Repair. Guitar Stand and Kyser Lifeguard Humidifier does not come with the guitar. Guitar has handwriting and signatures on back, minor scuffs and scratches (Please see pictures).

Epiphone PR-Series
Epiphone PR-350-12 & PR-200

The Epiphone PR, or Presentation, series began production in the mid to late 1970's with the PR-725, 745 and 765 dreadnought acoustic guitars. The PR-Series went on to include concert-sized and slope shouldered guitars through the 1980's and 90's as well as 12-string and acoustic/electric models featuring both laminated and solid wood construction. The PR-Series was renamed to the DR-Series in 2004. Many DR-Series acoustic guitars used the same numerical suffixes as the PR-Series and are identical in many, if not all ways to the PR acoustic guitars. Although discontinued, Epiphone released a PR-150 special run for 2010-2011 in limited quantities.

Epihone history in short.

Epiphone Pr 350 Serial Number Decoder


Epiphone Pr 350 Ce

Anastasios Stathopoulos born in 1863, was a Greek luthier who started a mandolin and violin company in 1873 in Pellana, Greece.
In 1903 he emigrated with his wife to New York. As luthier he started a year later a company that mainly produced mandolins. The company ran well, and therefore he took the Italian professional Henry cappielo employed.
After the death of Anastasios in 1915, his son Epaminondas (Epi) take control over the company. Under his management the company grows to one of the biggest of its kind. A few years later, Epaminondas opens a factory where mainly banjos were made. In 1924 he registered the brand name Epiphone, a combination of his own name (Epi) with the Greek word for sound (phone). Shortly thereafter, Epi buys the banjo company Favoran and introduces the banjo Epiphone Recording line. Because of their quality and elegant design, it will be a great success.
Due to the success of the banjo Recording line, a Recording line for guitars was also established in 1928 and a full line of f-hole archtop guitars was introduced in 1931. There are 12 models, including the top models: Broadway, Triumph and DeLuxe. Epiphone has been competing with
Gibson for some time and with the introduction of the Epiphone Emperor
in 1935, dealt a serious blow.
Epiphone introduced the Electar series in 1937, an electric guitar with an adjustable pickup.
Epaminondas dies in 1943 and the business is continued by his two sons Orpheus (Orphie) and Frixo. The cooperation between the two brothers is going badly and the company is going through hard times in the post-war years. By the mid-1950s, Epiphone is still making very few instruments.
In 1957, Epiphone is sold to CMI, Gibson's parent company, for $20,000.00. A full line of newly designed acoustic and electric guitars is launched in 1958. In 1960, Epiphone's production moved to the Gibson plant in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
At the beginning of 1970 the production under license from Gibson moved from the USA to Japan. From 1983 there is also produced in Korea and then in 1995 also in Indonesia. In 2004, Gibson opened a factory in Qingdao, China for the production of Epiphone guitars.
Although the vast production of Epiphone guitars takes place in these countries, some more exclusive models are still being made in the USA.
