If you just entered your serial number it may not show up here for up to 5 minutes. Sorry, I don't have any control over the update timing. This should be in order by Date, but unfortunately I have to trigger the sort manually. I'll do this from time to time.

Please note: There are many reasons why the serial numbers are not in clear ascending order strongly correlated with the date the guitar was started or later, sold. So there will be glaring inconsistencies. The early entries are probably the most vulnerable to these vagaries.  As you get into the mid-80s and beyond the serial numbers are more consistent.
