Client Testimonials

“I was looking to purchase a used Gibson J-200 that was advertised on ebay to be from the 80's. I wanted to confirm the year it was built, so I used TrueRelic which instantly came back with a manufacture year (1988!)”

"The guitar had been described to me on reverb as pristine with two small areas of rust. After reading your inspectors report I called the purchase off. The guitar had extensive rust and some very rough repairs."

Disclaimer

When you place your serial number analysis order with TrueRelic, you are hiring us to evaluate only the guitar's serial number and not the guitar itself. TrueRelic does not guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of any information on the analysis in question, and will not be liable for any loss or damage suffered as a result of anyone’s relying on this information. TrueRelic inspectors do not physically see or hold the guitar. The TrueRelic serial number lookup service is a virtual service and some issues or items may not be observable during the lookup. The TrueRelic inspector is solely relying on the serial number provided to us electronically by you. The lookup service is not an inspection, nor an authentication of the guitar, and we do recommend to complement it with our inspection and authentication services as well as advice from a local luthier who can inspect the guitar physically.
