My Ibanez JEM 777VBK has a rather unusual serial number: 911642 Is this rare in that it does not have a letter in front of it? The number is stamped on the neck plate and underneath is stamped Made in Japan.
Was this made in 1989 or 1991? I am confused and need help! :-)

The plate should be January '89, but I wouldn't count on that as written in stone or etched in steel for that matter ;) . Plates are never as reliable as serial numbers on the guitar, but yes that's how the early Jems were numbered.
