RG7CST Production Tally

Drew · 08-08-2007, 03:29 PM

Ok, an offshoot of the "Just How Rare are the CST's?" thread - Jemsite actually seems to have gotten pretty good results based on their RG-ART registry for the last several years, with around 40-something unique pieces identified thus far. So, since no one seems to know exactly how many CST's were produced, let's see how we can do here.

Let's run with the same criiteria - report citings, but it's only official if we have a serial number.

RG7CST's

F9850473 - MetalMike
F9850479 - Kevan
F9920677 - Rob Bowen
F9920689 - starsnuffer
F9930405 - nikt
F9950484 - Formerly mine, now owned by James Grote

Also, how to tell a CT from a CST: The CT has a rosewood fretboard and rosewood headstock overlay, no piezos, and a five-way with a volume and tone. The CST has an ebony board, an overlay of some sort on the headstoock that's stained reddish brown, peizos, and a 5-way with a mag volume, piezo volume, and tone, and a mini-toggle and push-button for the piezos. It has two putput jacks - the CT has one.

I'm on the list, I'm on the list

I will try to contact people that I was talking about

Drew · 08-08-2007, 03:35 PM

You were the first other person to provice a serial.

I think I fucked mine up when I entered it into the registry, though.

I'll have to send James Grote a PM about it.

maybe Yours was F9950484 ... ??

Drew · 08-08-2007, 03:46 PM

I've got pictures at home, I'll check it then. You sure yours is F993 and not F995? That's kind of interesting, already...

No. Mine is like I've wrote

Remember Drew that 7CSTs were produced in two series
RG7-PB1 and RG7-PB2VV (produced in 05/1999)

my CST is a RG7-PB1

Same guitar, but different model numbers for different markets.
CST = North America
PB1/PB2 = Europe

The F signifies the Fujigen factory/J-Custom Shop.
The two numbers after that signify the year the *NECK* was made.

F9850479 = Kevan Geier

All right... So, mine almost HAS to be 0484, doesn't it?

Here's a discussion of RG7CST production numbers on Jemsite (no serial numbers, though):

I don't remember the serial number for mine, but I sent it off to Norway a few years ago.
