For the life of me, I cannot find a link to it.

If it didn't make the trip, the serial in question is 4948.

thanks

Need to know the guitar.. 4948 by itself doesn't necessarily mean anything.

Sorry...he claims it is a 67 1111...but the serial seems a little large and the bridge doesn't appear to be era correct.

Maybe someone that knows more about acoustics will jump in, but the Model Reference shows the 1111 being made 1971-1986 . The serial 4948 is in the 1972 range, so the numbers presented match up, just not the date the person you referenced stated.

Thanks guys...

The more info I got on this, the less it became a 67. I appreciate the help.
