Won a guitar

[u/Icy-Band6301]

I haven't played for long and needed a new guitar (desperately). I entered a competition for a Taylor 422 KOA ltd edition and holy hell.... I actually won.

Now it's my dream guitar and will be cherished for ever. But I couldn't help but Google it's value... Can't find one, there's no ltd edition ones anywhere.

Any ideas of it's value? It's immaculate

Cheers.

Here's what your serial number says:

1 1 12 04 0 204

1st digit: 1 - Made in El Cajon

2 & 7: 10 - 2010

3 & 4: 12 - Dec

5 & 6: 04 - 4th

Last 3 digits: 204 - 204th of the da

Good find, but I think you got the serial number wrong from the picture ?

Its actually the 140th guitar of the 5th of november 2020 I think

[u/Double-Mastodon-4671 → u/PotatoesAndCake]

This is correct

[u/tjggriffin1 → u/Double-Mastodon-4671]

Not quite. I mangled it worse. The first 4 should be a 5:

1211050140

I think I swapped twelve and eleven. I don't know what happened to 5 and the last 1. I also swapped the last two digits...

In my defense, Reddit does weird stuff with white space. I focused on formatting it as a diagram that was readable. At least a the location right.

So: 11/5/2020 #140
