Yeah, I guess it is just a crap shoot. It's just frustrating because there are so many SLDRs and Jetspeeds for sale that are marketed as tour issue with retail servials and the + sign...No idea what to think at this point!

A 'T' serial number definitely does NOT appear on all Tour Issue SLDR's. I have two, one 460 and one 430 directly from the Tour van. Both have the '+' sign but neither have T serial numbers.
Feedback
Yeah, as far as I understand Thrill is correct - most tour issue SLDR's start with a "4" serial number.
