i own one just like it- missing the supro emblem on the headstock- red and white in color- and for sale for the right price- i've owned it for 20 years. it was my first guitar. how do you find out what year it was made? i've never been able to find any information on these guitars. the serial # on it is G8752 if that helps any?

Hello. Considering this serial number, your exemplar is also from 1963.

The copies of Supro catalogs I've got are confirming this fact...

By the way, new copies of the original emblem are available on ebay.

I would keep it at your place, but have a good sale !

Only other '63 belmont I have ever seen identical to mine.

Yes, it definitely sounds "plus malade" than the wooden ones. Did I tell you I got a '66 Dual-Tone recently? Hehehe

[lambdalex]

I agree: this one's surely the sickest of the three !

& No, you didn't told me, you crazy "Suprohead" !

(Now that I've seen that you have the cap, I guess you're the head... ; )

Take care of your growing Valco troop...
