OK, I'll get the list started, although it's much outdated by now. When my Franklin was new, (11/14/01) the S/N was 0192. [The best PSG I've ever owned!] Also the best of the (3) that I've owned since ’80. I've owned S/N 024 and S/N 069 in past years, and all new, and all great guitars!

I only have one; don't need another one, it plays the same as when I bought it in 1980.

Tom;
That was when Paul was winding his own P/U's. I was sorry when he stopped doing it himself. They wer good P/U's, but; he said they were too time-consuming to do and started using Bill Lawrence. Then Geo. L's and now back to B.L.'s again. Actually, I liked them all!

My Franklin is #014.
When I got mine it did have the original Franklin PU's. I now have BL PU's but still have the Franklin's. Just curious as to the total D10 made to date.
Thanks Andy.
