You just kind of look in the f-holes from different angles - good lighting helps ::)  As far as I know anything you'll be looking for should be stamped on the inside of the back in pretty plain view through one or both of the f-holes.

Although actually the FON on my 125TC was stamped in a spot that was hard to see without moving or lifting the pickguard - I didn't notice it for quite a while.

I was thinking more about the pots & wiring. I've no desire to take it apart but I'm curious how you check pot dates easily.

How about a Dentist-mirror?
Someone knows where I can find the nearest woodchipper to throw my pieces of junk into?

The guitar arrived this morning as I was stepping out the door to go to work. Aaaaarrrggghh!!!!

I can't wait to get home unwrap my new toy. I've been clock-watching all morning.
