Location: Phoenix AZ		Thanks to Cliff for this VERY COOL record of all the original slothead serial number assignments as well as the first batch of Adamas I. This is a great historical record and is also posted on my website. Explains why my guitar has a number "15" on it and Cliff's says "20". Enjoy and thanks again Cliff.

Here's the link SLOTHEAD NUMBER ASSIGNMENTS

Location: Atlanta, GA.		Thanks Dave and Cliff. And 12 on mine.
They sure did mix and match the tops to the bowls (if I'm reading it right).
And looks like some tops never make it out of the factory i.e. 11, 16-18 etc.

It's really a two-page document that I scanned and stitched together. I made the SlotHead info "bolder" to make it a bit easier to read . . .

The factory confused "Marcel Marceau" with "Marcel Dadi". The French all look alike to us. Except for Brigitte Bardot.

Location: Phoenix AZ		Bill, As long as your memory is working do you recall ...

Were all of the A/E original slotheads 2-knob mono? And when did the first 2-knob stereo show up?
