    Default Serial number not on ISMACS= HELP!!
    need to find out about a Singer with a JAxxxxxx number. So 6 digits. I can find J's, but not JAs.

    Any chance of seeing a picture of the serial number plate?

    Also, remember that you can e-mail or call Singer and they will do the research for you at no cost.

    Hmmm. JA #'s typically denote Japanese clones and Japan made machines?

    The information should be exact. I got it from Singer's own website.

    Here is a link to more information. I have spent a lot of time at this website. Also check out the link to "Needles". It is a great reference chart to Singer models and their needle requirements.
