Serial number identification/info (Rockwood LX90)

Hi all, I’m new here, but for just about 2 years I’ve had a red Hohner Rockwood LX90.

I’ve read up on here a little to find out the first two digits of the serial number denote the build year, my particular example being from 2001.

The serial number is 012879, what else can I learn about the guitar from this?

I assume you’re right about the year of manufacture. I’ve asked the Service Dept. if they can provide any further information & will post here.

Hi Lexology

The Service Dept says this model was built from 1994 onwards, yours dates either from 2001 as you assumed, or possibly 2000. They also sent the following specs, hope that’s a help:

Rockwood; 21 nickel silver frets; single mechanics; fixed maple neck; rosewood fingerboard; 3x single coil pickup; 5-way switch; vol/tone/tone; standard vibrato; chrome hardware; colours: red, black, sunburst
