NOTE : The following is an attempt to help everyone who wants to date their Mosrite. Get a professional or someone who knows what they're doing to carefully remove the neck and any shims that may have been used to get the angle right. Do not just rip the neck off your Mosrite. Most Mosrites from late '64 to late '68 have an assembly date and batch number stamped on the neck and in the neck pocket (bolt ons only of course) and some have hand signed signatures of the inspector/builder. If your guitar does not have the serial # stamped there, it is likely to be either A: a replacement neck (some do have serials stamped here) B: a copy (some do have serials stamped here) C: Mosrite forgot to stamp it (it happened) or D: A refret where the board has been sanded/leveled. Mosrites from very late 1963 have their serial number stamped in the fretboard between the 21st and 22nd fret. Serials are stamped in the back of the headstock like Gibson. Semie's serial numbering system was 100 series for the double necks, 1000 series for the single neck models and 000 series for the basses. Here's a couple of points to get you started :ġ960-63.
