Serial Numbers

Welcome to the most comprehensive and regularly updated list of Serpentine Guitars and Kemp Guitars serial numbers you will find anywhere.

Each entry includes serial number, year (of manufacture), description (including any known specification changes made by current or previous owners) and last known location of that specific guitar.

Please note: The majority of guitars made between years 2009 - 2012 were not allocated serial numbers and some guitars are missing. Also, due to the partial loss of records to water damage, some serial numbers and guitars are also missing between years 2012 - 2016.
