Dating a T-40

Post by muggermackaye » Mon Oct 20, 2014 4:01 pm

Hello guys, first post. I'm a proud owner of a 78 t-40 natural. I bought it on a whim recently, and really really love it. I'm looking at another locally and i would like to date it. The serial number is

01389825

owner claims to have bought it new after they stopped production?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi I have a T-40, found it's way to England and ended up in my hands!
Apparently still with the original case and only a slight bit of sweat hand damage from the extensive gigging I've done with it!
Without a doubt the most amazing bass I have ever played!

Anyway the serial number on the headstock reads 00308113 and I'd love to have any information anyone can give me on this
