Greetings all – 

It’s taken me some time, but I’ve finally done a full revamp of the Dyer Serial Number Date list. This was instigated by the discovery last fall of an image that seemed to prove for me that the Larson Type 1 harp guitar was indeed first introduced in 1901. (See Cracking the Dyer DNA Code.)

I was thus able to take some of the conjecture out of my previous Dyer Dating article, while doing a better statistics-based placement of the serial numbers.

Please note that my colleague Bob Hartman (who originally started all this) also updated his own serial number list in his recent book, but unfortunately, had just gone to press before our latest discovery (seen in Cracking).

While I was at it, I moved Dyers in the BMG Magazines to the public Dyer section. This had previously been in the Members Only section.
