S/N W721096, photos at links below. I've never seen this finish. Thanks! http://us.f509.mail.yahoo.com/y5/s/viewphoto?show= largephoto&folderid=%2540S%2540Search&mid=1_905_1_ 446905_0_ACYnvs4AACtkRsTwWQx60UOKxTw&partid=4&name =front-guitar2.jpg&size=163840&search=1 http://us.f509.mail.yahoo.com/y5/s/viewphoto?show= largephoto&folderid=%2540S%2540Search&mid=1_905_1_ 446905_0_ACYnvs4AACtkRsTwWQx60UOKxTw&partid=2&name =back-of-guitar.jpg&size=130048&search=1   Peterdryan Username: Peterdryan Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 12:49 pm:    The URLs wouldn't load in IE7. Is there any way you could download the images to your local PC and then post them here?   Bikemakr Username: Bikemakr Registered: 8-2007 Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 12:52 pm:    I can't figure out how to get them to load... Got instructions? Thanks   Peterdryan Username: Peterdryan Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 1:56 pm:    See the "Image Upload FAQ" in the left side menu.   Peterdryan Username: Peterdryan Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 3:12 pm:    Here are the images of Bikemakr's guitar:   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 2-2001 Posted on Saturday, August 18, 2007 - 9:26 am:    According to Captain Ibanez's serial number "decoding" thread, this would be a July 2002, Chinese made, (in the World factory) SA160QMTG. See this catalog page for more details: http://www.ibanezrules.com/catalogs/us/2002/p16.jp g   Bikemakr Username: Bikemakr Registered: 8-2007 Posted on Saturday, August 18, 2007 - 12:08 pm:    That's it! Ours is made in Korea. Thank you all for the help.   Gemberbier Username: Gemberbier Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Monday, August 20, 2007 - 2:35 am:    If you search this thread for "World factory", you will find another SA1600 + the confirmation of the Captain that the World factory is in fact Korea. Although it was mentioned in the list of letter codes under CHINA PRODUCTION. That seems to be an ERROR. http://www.ibanezcollectors.com/discus/messages/57 51/8404.html Ginger   Gemberbier Username: Gemberbier Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Monday, August 20, 2007 - 2:41 am:    Oh, that was an SA160 not 1600. Anyway, I also found a thread with Jim Donahue's comfirmation that World Factory is Korean and NOT Chinese: http://www.ibanezcollectors.com/discus/messages/57 51/2148.html Ginger
