How old is Geddy Lee?

[basskit_case]

I have an MIJ Geddy Lee that I want to put into the classifieds section, but I cannot seem to age it properly.

The bass is an MIJ and has the Serial number: T057726. According to the websites I have check this serial would make the year of birth 1994/95.

Can this be correct I though the Geddy's were first made in 1998.

Thanks

Get the neck off & you should find a date stamp

If it says 'crafted in japan' Serials with T- 6 digits is 2007 - 2006

There's quite a few Geddy Lees on USA ebay that claim to be from 1994 as well. Bit of a mystery. I'm sure someone will come along soon enough and explain it all to us.

Date stamp should be on the inside of the neck pocket, that's where it is on mine...
