I think it was Brian Ball who told me about the "B" serials. I don't think it has anything to do with the instrument itself, but rather those serials were limited in number (for whatever reason).

The plastic battery compartment was introduced in 1996.

Hey - I'm a newbie.

I bought my SR5 in Dec, 2002 or Jan, 2003. Serial #: E34536. Looking at other E3s listed on the Website, I'd guess mine to have been made Dec 2002. Sound about right?

Welcome

It's May or June 2001.

To get the exact date, you'll have to ask Jon....Ernie Ball tech. You'll catch him if you pose the question on the open Forum.
