I might have the chance to obtain this 5-string (serial # 83990). How do I read the serialnumber? Was the bass made in 1983?

I would really appreciate some more info on this particular model (electronics etc.)

Thanks a million in advance!

No, it was made in 1990, #839 in total. Take off the Back Plate and look at the Label stuck to the inside of the Back Plate. It will have a Quality Control Label with the completion date written there, this serial number and my signature.
