Do you know the year of manufacture?

 

[littlebiscuit]

Thanks for the comments and questions! If I'm tracking the production years correctly and aligning with what we know from other members, this was likely produced in 1999. The serial is: AK150508. The last few years in the Westerly plant seem a bit harder to track (production wise)-and I have to lean on the expertise of Hans and other gurus of Guild.

Thanks,

AK150508 could be already year 2000, but only Hans would know. (AK150578 was 2000 and AK150797 was 2001.) I didn't find more 1999 or 2000 numbers to say for sure.

Hey Hart, good to see you around here! I'd buy that beauty, but I wouldn't know what to do with it.
