Footnotes:

[1]	the Serial Number Format for this model is myypppp where: m = month of manufacture (e.g.: A = Jan, B = Feb, ... , K = Nov, L = Dec) yy = last two digits of the year of manufacture (e.g.: 84 = 1984) pppp = the sequential production number for this individual guitar out of all Ibanez electric guitars manufactured during the specified month/year at a given factory Note: pppp is not the total number of guitars manufactured of this model.

[2]	although this model did not appear in any known marketing materials, we are assuming a Western market due to an advertisement for the DT-650 appearing in the March 1984 issue of Guitar Player magazine.
