Re: Another M400 surfaces on eBay......S/N 806,Kindred Siblings...

2003-07-22 by jamierob54

Interesting aside: I just finished stripping down my recently 
acquired #380 in preparation for cabinet refinishing, and discovered 
that some of the components appear to be labeled 379.  The two audio 
jack mounting plates, for example, have "379F" and "379B" written on 
the backs.

Is it possible that some M400 never saw the light of day and were 
scrapped before getting out the door - Or were serial numbers 
assigned only after the units were ready to ship?
