basskit_case Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiOgon Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Get the neck off & you should find a date stamp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjones Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
